There is an orphanage near our apartment. It's less than a 10 minute walk from where we live. We saw it one night when we were going for a walk. The name on the building is "Hogar de Ninas de Dios" which means Home of the Girls of God. We stopped by there one night to ask if we could volunteer in some way. The director suggested that we spend time teaching the girls English. There are about fifteen girls living there. Two of them are little and the others are middle school or high school age.
Tonight was our first official visit. We brought along some picture books from our school library as well as a game. We listened to them read, talked with them, and played games. We were going to be there for an hour but ended up staying for two! We can hardly wait to go again.
