Dave Sims and Omar - it was easy to form friendships with some of these children.  They had welcoming personalities and great smiles!

Cathy takes one of the children at Sophie's Place for a walk.  (The dog in the lower right side is named "Rice and Peas" after popular Jamaican meal -  he became part of the group after a few days.)

Margaret McKinnon was our spiritual director for the trip and she did a phenomenal job!  We met for morning and evening prayer and reflection each day.  Because of many of her efforts, we became a much closer group and formed deeper friendships.  Thanks for preparing the note cards, Mag!!

Stacy Abraham holds one of the newborn babies as she and Michael Citrini visit with a young mother and baby at Mary's Child. 

This little boy latched on to Mariann during Mass on Sunday and saw her again the following day at My Father's House.   He became "her little guy."

These four girls live at Jerusalem and are having fun playing on the swing.  They are more than willing to smile for the camera!
