Day 8 and the final day of our work at POPCH was a happy moment for us. Mee Lar has managed to get her Tianjin friends, a lovely Christian couple to help us source for milk bottles, bibs and together with the towels that she has bought earlier, we were able to give the whole lot of over 100 milk bottles of two different sizes to Xiao Liu from World Vision, Tianjin.
Being very meticulous, she has actually ensured that the bottles were suitable by asking her friend to drop by at the POPCH sometime earlier in the week to make sure that they are suitable for the children.
It is indeed with grateful heart that I will like to say "Thanks" to all my team members who have gone out of the way to make the whole 11days at POPCH very meaningful.
To Xiao Lui, the ever cheerful and smiling administrator who is always ready to assist us - I am thankful to have known you and kudos to your dedication to your work.
To Mee Lar - thanks for being meticulous, purposeful and diligent - without your diligence, I am sure we will not have
gotten a good deal for the milk bottles, bibs as you have gone the extra mile to make sure that the $ donated by my friends and of course you n Amanda, stretch to the max!
To Arlene - thanks for your "motherly" love and care - your Tang yuan is very delicious..tho' I would have love a sweeter version of the soup..ha ha
To Amanda - your patience and love for the children, including your resourcefulness in getting the cranes up - speaks volumes of your love for the children...
To Diana - my team mate and also a "siao" person to be around - thanks for tolerating my nonsense and being patient with me.
To Anne- our youngest team member - you may say you are "blur" and also "sotong" but when it comes to giving your time and efforts for the children, you never stinge on your love and care for them.
To the 3 HK staff who came all the way to be part of this great team...thanks for showing me what love and dedication is 😊
and most of all, to God be the glory for showing me this
Bibs for POPCH
with a waterproof underside part of China, bringing about new experiences for me to have fun and learn and also to stretch me beyond my comfort zone...learning to treasure each child in the home and each teacher/nanny as a person that is created by Him for his glory!
It is indeed a most wonderful week and a memorable time.
Many people has said that we are kind to be giving our time, but I can assure you that the one who benefit the most was myself - from learning to hold the hands of these children, to playing games with them as well as knowing that God has a role for each of the children in the home - they are not a mistake or a mishap - but a purpose for me to learn about the love of God in deeper way.
