Baby House @ Smile Africa.
Another part to Smile Africa is their "Baby House" where Pastor Ruth & staff care for many orphans.

Smile Africa is working hard to place these children in foster or permanent homes. Always trying to do the best for such little ones.

Bubbles are fun.
In addition to this loving place for babies, Pastor Ruth also has a widows program. Women from the community can seek help, shelter or whatever they may need from Smile Africa when they are all alone in a very difficult time. We met many of these women and they are lovely. Many of these ladies create; making crafts, paintings & sewing projects. Myself and others enjoyed purchasing some of those items in the widows store on property. Again... overwhelmed with the need here while being impressed with many individuals & groups who dedicate their lives or means to helping... and it's making a difference (even if sometimes it seems small).
The way that child is looking at you in the first picture speaks volumes..I'm sure you and April came away with joy and a heavy heart!
