I have good news: the orphans were able to come home on Wednesday, August 18th! Praise God for that. There are still some issues to deal with resulting from the flood waters. Our front gate is still broken and we are waiting to hear if the government will fix the broken water pipes and heating pipes. Only a minimal amount of water seeped in one side door. We are just so thankful that our children and our staff are safe. A copy of an article was dropped off at the office by one of our supporting friends today and here is the link http://china.globaltimes.cn/society/2010-08/560341.html
It talks about the flooding in our area and how devastating it has been for many. Thank you for keeping us in your prayers. God bless you.
