Growing Pains
We cannot say no to helping an abandoned new born. When they are left of unwanted we have said yes 50 times. We now have about 50 little ones ranging in age from new born to mid-teens. Our family has grown and continues to grow. It is a challenge to our staff and keeping up with facilities. These are our growing pains. We encourage our staff to adopt these unwanted children and the others we have in one of our two children’s home.
There are several of our staff who have met and married while working on the base. They are now in need of married living quarters. We are delighted to see couples in loving relationships and serving together.
Several of our staff have been in University training and will be returning to serve at the medical base. We have to increase the housing for those who are returning following their education.
Growing pains means we have to build facilities for the new children, married staff and returning staff. These are the challenges of growing pains–where do you squeeze the funds to keep up with the growth.
