The Sisters of Mother Theresa

---

We planned to spend half the day at an Aids Hospice and the other half at the Orphanage. Unfortunately Reverend Stevens, our coordinator for the orphanage, said he didn't expect there to be many kids today due to the torrential rain (and inadequate facilities for indoor acitivities), so instead we opted to spend the majority of the day at the Hospice. Run by the Sisters of Mother Theresa, the Hospice does a variety of things. We only briefly saw the adult wing and then headed upstairs to see the children. We spent the remainder of our day with them. The children (around 30, and for the most part under 2 years old) were there for a variety of reasons: malnutrition, aids, orphans, and other ailments. Some will only be there for a short period of time (to gain weight/get better) and others are there indefinately. We helped the sisters with both lunch and dinner and then played and monitored as best we could. It was one of the best experiences we've had here.
