Head of Household



(click photos to enlarge)I'll let these photos speak for themselves, except to say that, yes, this family of orphaned children is living on their own, and is now headed by the eleven-year-old girl you see above. They receive one visit a month from the Home-Based Care team Scott works with, and they also receive monthly food packages from World Vision International.

Hi David and Scott. I MISS YOU !!!
But I know that the work and life you are living now is so rich and meaningful and valuable. I am very proud of you guys. I have read all your blogs and find the stories you tell facinating, heartbreaking, astounding, marvelous. David, the last blog telling the story of your gift to Nosipho and Marcoba was so touching that it made me cry. I am just in awe. Changing the life of those children forever. And it looks like the work you and Scott do changes so many people's lives on a daily basis. How rewarding that must be. I love you guys even more, if that is at all possible. Keep writing and know that you are inspirering all of us with your actions. Patrick and I are doing well and our thoughts and love are with you.
