Hello!
Another update from another interesting day.
We had our street kids blessing bag event this Sunday which we had been preparing for a long time. It was with mixed feelings and a lot of emotions, bittersweet to watch this. Approximately 200 street boys came, yes there was none girls. They all got one t-shirt, a tooth brush, a tooth past, and a soap each. As well as a full meal with a soda bottle and water. The expressions and faces and happiness in their faces you can't put a price tag on. It was so much love and happiness. As well as seeing them in such a happy mood it is was quite hard to see them so dirty and with their glue bottles and with lack of everything. The smallest guy was about 7. Everyday all of them struggles to make it through the day and do not know if they will do. However they just fight and they don't give up. If I asked them "how are you?", they smiled and said I'm fine!
It was a lot to take in, seeing boys aged 10 high on glue is sad. You feeling stupid standing there so privilegde and do not understand why people get so different lives. Just beacuse we are born in different countries. It is a lot to take in.
However we know that ca 200 boys got full tummies and would make it through at least a few other days - But again I will go to bed and remeber those faces and cant forget their life. I have to do more.
