Wednesday at Hope Center

Getting ready for new stairs to the Medical Building. Tom, Jack and Greg.









Darlene, Mickey and I were allowed to visit new Mothers and babies at the Maternity Hospital in Kerch. We were greeted by the head of the hospital physician staff and were escorted by the head nurse to the rooms where we presented each mother with the flannel blankets and small baby clothes and items mostly from Palm Creek Quilters. One mother is 16 years old and is in an orphanage herself. They graciously accepted the gifts and a few allowed us to hold the babies. What a joy!






The guys were working very hard on the cement projects as the cement truck came twice. All are sore and tired but glad that the projects were completed. These young boys are enjoying the new tables and chairs which were donated by Hope Center to their orphanage.






Tom and two IVA boys named Genya were having their icecream break while admiring their work on a cement sidewalk.
