I was an orphan until the age of 4 and was angry about my situation. I thought the children would be the same, considering their horrific backgrounds, but they were loving and accepting. To my surprise, they walked up and talked to me, and we played and laughed together. It touched my heart that the children were so loving and happy, especially after all they have been through. Their backgrounds helped me appreciate my family more.
I loved my time at Agua Viva, seeing the love the children have for each other, their love for us, and their grateful hearts. Most of all, I loved seeing them encouraged to walk with the Lord. I am grateful for the chance to spend time with the children and to experience the amazing things that happen at Agua Viva.
