Lia Teaching Orphanage Kids
August 2009
I can barely believe it. The news is still sinking in, but I wanted to get this out to all of you asap. Yay, I’ll be able to sleep tonight. Then again, so many questions: how did the staff get out in time, with 13 kids, most of them toddlers, one unable to walk, another one unable to move? Where are they sleeping now — out in the open? How are the kids getting their AIDS and Tuberculosis medicine? Were they able to salvage that from the wreckage?
The answers will emerge… at the latest when Luke arrives on Monday.
Thank you all again for your amazing support in these difficult times!
Stay tuned and rejoice!

Thank you for this most wonderful news! Just today I looked at each of the children’s pictures to some how feel closer to them. Hallelujah and praise to Lia and those who helped to get the children to a safe place.
Love and comfort to the whole WeCanBuildanOrphanage

We are SO happy here in the U.S. to here that Lia and the kids made it out. We know Lia from her time working and living in New York. We were very worried, and many of us have been praying and sending positive energy and thoughts down that way. I am sorry to hear about the loss of the orphanage building. We will stay tuned for updates…
Thank you so much for your support, it means a lot:)
I am so relieved. Thank you for the updates and I look forward to hearing more information. If you have contact with Lia please send her and all the children my love.
