Mother Teresa Orphanage

Today a few of the nurses went to Mother Teresa orphanage to play and interact with the children there. It's a very serene place and you can feel the presence of God as soon as you enter. The grounds and buildings are beautifully kept and the flowers are like what you would see at a botanical garden. We first arrived to the building that had toddlers. They ran up to us with arms stretched out wanting so badly to be picked up and held. They were so content with just being held and loved that it brought tears to your eyes. Some nurses went to the nursery to sing and hold the babies while the rest of us played with the older children. We played kick ball and tag and had a great time. A very moving experience to see how just a little bit of attention can bring so much joy to children who have been without love for so long. Mother Teresa orphanage is indeed a special place for these needy children who can embrace God's love so eagerly.
