Celebrating birthdays are very special. It is even more
special to see someone so humble about giving up their birthday to help others. Lydia was blown away when she woke to hear the sweet, sweet lulls of our fellow workers
at the children's home singing to her, from the other side of her door. They woke up extra
early (4:30 AM) to sing praise songs to her, ending in Happy Birthday. Her face
was priceless! Even though she was unable to spend her birthday with family at
home, the Filipinos weren't about to leave her hanging. It is a gift she will always remember & cherish. Thank you Lord for nationals you put in our lives to remind us we are part of a larger family.
