Filipino Orphanage...TAKE ME!!!

So my brother and his wife and family are back in the Philipines right now and they posted these pictures on our family Group me of them and the kids visiting an orphanage in Manila!!!

I was so touched looking at these pictures...ALL THESE LIL babies, that NEED SOMEONE TO LOVE THEM!!!! My niece and nephew looking in at the babies...AWWWW little babies...I would take YOU ALL if I could!!!

I remember the last time I was in the Philipines, after going to Manila we went to the island of Bohol. While we were there we went with the young people from that church to visit a Boholian orphanage. You can read about it Here!!! Buuuuuuuut I remember when I was there that me and this little girl Mary Ann instantly connected...she said I had cute eyes...AWWWW...we couldn't stay a part from each other...I soooooo wished I could take her with me...she was 13 at the time buuuuuut I wonder what has happened to her...at 16 these children are on their own...its been 2 and a half years...I hope she is not out wondering the streets now...I couldn't get her...

BUT I CAN PRAY FOR HER!!!

There are SOOO MANY PEOPLE that need SOMEONE TO LOVE THEM!!! I saw these words and have made it a part of my prayers to God...

Lord, TAKE ME WHERE LOVE IS NEEDED!!! Weather its in another country than my homeland, across the ocean to another continent or if its...

right HERE in my city...

Down the street, across town,

Jesus, TAKE ME,

WHERE LOVE IS NEEDED!!!

The Votaws!!!

He has preached all over the US, China, Taiwan, the Philipines, Vietnam and many more Asian countries. He preaches in underground churches in communism countries. He converted a man on death row in prison to Christ and 3 hours before that man died he baptized him in Jesus name. He prayed the first man in Vietnam to kill and americn soldier through to the Holy Ghost and Baptized him in Jesus name. He has converted trinitartin preachers all over to the Oneness doctrine...BUT ABOVE all else...I thank God that I TOO am ONE OF THOSE souls he reached out too...he gave 7 years of his life to New York City!!! I thank God that he answered the call!!! It wasn't until his 6th & final year as pastor there, that our family came into church...we were there for 9 months before we came to AZ and then right after that the Votaws left NYC for the mission fields of Asia...I THANK God that someone had a burden for NYC!!!

Sis. Kathy!!!

This is the woman that invited my Momma to a Pentecostal church!!! She told me that she was actually new in the church herself and that she would see my mom in the front yard of our house playing with us kids and she just wanted so badly for my mom to have what she had just recieved herself. It may have been just one person that she was witnessing to at that time, but that one person has had an affect on her own five children and now its her Grandchildren that are still recieving the blessing of Sis. Kathy's witness. 25 years ago, it wasn't just my mom...I may have only been two at the time, but it was ME she was winning too! I thank God she wasn't afraid to be a witness and that she didn't give up on my mom. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. (Acts 2:39) When you decide to live for God it doesn't just stop with you!
