Manna

 The new baby has adjusted and is eating and sleeping great.  He is certainly being loved on and cared
 for while he is here.

Eagle's Nest host a program called "Manna" that feeds children from the nearby community Wednesday through Friday.

 It is sponsored by a company in the U.S and the families are visited and qualified by the Pastor to attend.  They get a warm meal and a bible lesson before lunch - and playtime after.

This property had a run down pool on it when it was purchased years ago. They were able to restore and utilize on property.  The water is very cold, but many of the Manna children use it to clean off when they are here.

When I first started coming to Eagle's Nest eleven years ago at times water in the pool was used for showering and cooking when the City turned the water off.

You never know when that will be. Yesterday the electricity was shut off all day in this area - so  grateful for the team that put a generator on the property a few years ago.  It can be challenging to take care of 50 children as well as run a school with 200 kids without electricity all day.

We have a lot of new faces at Manna, approximately 50 attend.  Side note - they walk alone to get here, some are very young, the siblings or family members help the youngest.  A few of the children were toddlers when I met them.

 The kids attending change as family situations and the need changes.  It is always nice to see familiar faces and grateful once again for the opportunity to be here and love on these kids too.  Thanks for keeping up with my journey.   Blessings, Denise
