Embrace the orphan!
At Mother's Day it is so pleasant to see some Mom's shining love and
some childish sincere feelings to their Moms at some pictures. It was
very good to hear some kind, sincere, hearty words about those Moms
which are with them and especially about those which as my Mom is with
the Lord in Heaven. Praise the Lord for our Moms! These days our team
visited the orphanages with the Easter program (Russian Easter was one
month later than Western Easter this year). As always we had our
puppet theatre, prizes, games, puzzles, songs, verses, presents and
sweets. But this time there was something special: these days orphans
tried to hug and touch and kiss those who visited them. There was a
great mutual joy - you hug this little child which is thirsty of Mom's
tenderness and love and at this moment you feel something trembling in
your heart and it is impossible to express by words. Dear friends,
come to us and we all together will visit these wretched kids left by
their parents but the Lord is with them and He highly appreciate them.
May be we are not able to do a lot of things for orphans but we can
hug and give our warmness and tenderness for them for several minutes
and it is possible for each of us and it is very precious for the
Lord!

In His Name,Anatoly
