Myanmar – November 2008 – “My teammate Zach was a big hit with the children. He was a magic, living toy. I loved watching him come alive with the children. He has a heart of gold. Sometimes I would just look over at him and just feel the passion that he felt for these parent-less children. One thing I did learn in Myanmar is that the people don’t hug. But, if you hug any one of the kids, just one time, they keep coming to you wanting to be held.” – photo by Natalie Montgomery
Myanmar – November 2008 – “The people of the villages followed us everywhere. People stared at us like we were aliens, and to them we were. Many of the people had never seen white skin before. We really scared the little ones. Some of the kids would cry and run into their homes. Few people are even educated enough to have ever heard the name Jesus.” – photo by Natalie Montgomery
