I've never been good at Goodbye

 Today was our last day to visit the Children's home.

I can't believe our time with these sweet, goofy, and full of life kids has come to an end so quickly.I have never been good with saying goodbye, but can not  thank God enough  and praise Him for allowing me to be apart of their lives for a semester. My  prayer is  that they each one grow up fearing the Lord and putting  Him first in all they do, and I also pray that I showed them Jesus' love fully in my time with them. This has been such a beautiful chapter in my life and I will never forget these precious kids. I am humbled and amazed by all that God has shown and taught me through visiting the Lar  each week and being  able to live in Portugal. Today we gave presents and had a little Christmas party; here are a few pictures of our time together making snow flakes and enjoying the day!!!





"I thank my God in all my remembrance of you" Philippians 1:3
