Chiara & Co...

Natalia passing out tracks to some old people without families. These particular folks had sad stories because they had lost everything including families during the war! So it was very special to be able to bring them some Christmas cheer!

Being silly behind the scenes while waiting for next entry!

The "Urchin kids" part of the show. And singing "He's got the Whole World in His Hands!" in Croatian.

< More recent happenings are the Christmas shows! The show consists of a play, songs, games and magic tricks. The play is a Heaven's Library story called; The Christmas Sand Clock! It's a very touching story and the girls part in it is the "urchin kids". And then of course they also sing and dance a few Christmas songs. They have already done the show in many old folks homes, orphanages, hospitals for children and schools. So many souls have been won!

A really nice thing that happened at the end of September was that the home decided to throw a little celebration for our rejoining FD status. As you know we had already become FD in July but at that time we were too busy to celebrate. They made it so cool with prophecies and all. The coolest were the cakes; an FD cake for Michael and I and a crown of life cake for the other guy that joined at the same time as us. Needless to say we felt very appreciated and loved. A special blessing after everything we went through! Thank you Home!!

I know I have failed you all miserably! But I hope you can find it within you to forgive me! And if it can be of any comfort this time of silence on the Blog has been very well invested!WE have done many projects in and out of the home one of which was getting pregnant! Ha! So wish me luck as I try to catch up on the news of the last few months. Since we are also having a lot happening right now, with the Christmas push and all, I will interspers the older news in between some of the latest news. And with that hopefully we will manage to satisfy everyone! Love "Chiara & Co!!
