At the hospital


Yes, Noel was at the hospital, but not for treatment for herself. She was there to watch this cute little guy. This is a 2 month old boy who lives at Kanyama orphanage. He had a bowel obstruction and needed surgery. Apparently in hospitals in Zambia you must have someone stay with you, as the nurses are not expected to do much more than give medication. Because this little one is an orphan and is HIV+, no one was willing to stay with him. It was such a small thing, to hold him and feed him, but I believe it means a lot to our Lord to show mercy to the most vulnerable.

"I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me." Matt. 26:40

Okay, you've brought tears to my eyes this morning, Noel! Praise the Lord for your willingness to serve the Lord like this!
