Sangaalo

The best was to describe this day was encouraging.
I am so thankful for that, my weary heart needed a lil joy and today joy it found.
Sangaalo means joy in some tribal language that I do not have the ability to pronounce.
Damilee is the founder of this beaufitul ministry and her whole compound overflows with the joy of the Lord.
I held baby Grace literally all day long. She is almost 2, but she looks like she is no more than 6 months. She was found malnourished locked in her grandmother's house, abandoned.
Every baby there has a similar story.
Bobby, the most recent addition is 3 days old. His mother gave birth on Monday and then tried to kill him. Neighbors intervened and brought the babe to Damilee.
I know these stories are not encouraging, but Damilee and her ministry are.
It is a called a baby cottage and Damilee is a safe haven for abandoned babes.
If I have ever seen someone have a calling it is this beautiful woman. She currently mothers 13 newborns, she has had close to 25 at one time.
She LOVES babies.
And she loves them well.
At one point today all were wailing at the top of their little newborn lungs and she just had the most beautiful smile on, so full of joy.
It is encouraging.
I am so thankful for her and for her heart.
I might have been peed on, spit up on and had snot covering every inch of me, regardless her ministry stole my heart today.
Dont mind if I dont come back.
