Last week while we were at one of the homes we had a visitor. The home is a Catholic retreat that sits on more than ten acres of property. They have several different projects taking place on the grounds: a school, a home for unwed mothers, AIDS/HIV children, an orphanage, etc.
While we were sitting there getting started, one of the sisters (nuns) walked in with a man and stood there quietly exchanging a few words. The sister eventually introduced the gentleman. He had been a orphan there 30 years ago and wanted to come back to visit. It was quite a powerful moment; a testimony to the home and to the girls. It was an example for them to witness the success of someone who had been in a similar situation as theirs.

I love this; something you see in the movies.
Wow...what a powerful moment. Great to see, like Jesus said, that some of the seed falls on good soil and later produces a fruitful result.
So many at TLC are asking about you...especially yesterday when I took Caleb on the Staff Giant game train to SF.
You are missed.
