It's 9pm, and the kids are sleeping in their new homes for the first time...

We picked up 14 children today and relocated them to their new home: Kipkaren. Right now, the kids are in their new beds with new linens, new siblings, new parents... For most of them, tonight will be the first time in their lives that they've slept in a bed. Amazingly, these kids were incredibly excited when we picked them up today. They've been prepared well for the day.

After lunch and a tour of their new home, the children played soccer with a visiting team from Nuevo, California. Tonight, they had devotions, dinner (a second full meal in one day? another new thing to many of them!) and visits with their new families.
