		<description><![CDATA[We were blessed to see two boys who had gotten into a scuffle earlier come before the group and sincerely apologize and hug. Taye, an Onesimus staff member/translator, led the boys in this confession, forgiveness, and restoration, and it was such a wonderful reminder of how we, especially as believers, need to confess, repent, and show grace to one another.<p>Post from: <a href="http://theforsakenchildren.org">The Forsaken Children</a><br/><br/><a href="http://theforsakenchildren.org/day-six-thursday/">Day Six: Thursday</a></p>

Tonight the blog is a little different…each team member has submitted their favorite “highlight(s)” from the trip so far, as well as a prayer request. If you would please take time to pray for each of the requests listed, we would appreciate it so much!<p>Post from: <a href="http://theforsakenchildren.org">The Forsaken Children</a><br/><br/><a href="http://theforsakenchildren.org/day-five-wednesday/">Day Five: Wednesday</a></p>

		<description><![CDATA[We had an amazing morning led by Howard, who told the story about Jesus walking on water.  Howard really delivered a strong message with his passion for Christ and his energetic measures. Taye, an Onesimus staff member, translated the message with enthusiasm and compassion.  After the lesson where all kids were engaged, Howard asked them if they wanted to accept Jesus as their savior. <p>Post from: <a href="http://theforsakenchildren.org">The Forsaken Children</a><br/><br/><a href="http://theforsakenchildren.org/day-four-tuesday/">Day Four: Tuesday</a></p>

		<description><![CDATA[I think for most of the team, today was both absolutely amazing and heartbreaking—we experienced pure joy and deep sadness. It was our first day at the drop-in center. When we arrived, they had the sweetest welcome ceremony for us! Candice and Nicci had helped the kids make a banner saying, “Welcome Central Church!” and they were singing with the biggest smiles and they had red roses for each of us. I was totally overwhelmed and had to hold back the tears.<p>Post from: <a href="http://theforsakenchildren.org">The Forsaken Children</a><br/><br/><a href="http://theforsakenchildren.org/day-three-monday/">Day Three: Monday</a></p>

		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever thought about what it is going to be like to worship in heaven—all tribes, all nations, all tongues lifting voices to the King of kings? I think our team got a little taste of that today as we worshiped at the International Evangelical Church. It was so neat to look around and see people from many different backgrounds—Ethiopian, Asian, Australian, Swedish, and other Africans—all praising the same God! <p>Post from: <a href="http://theforsakenchildren.org">The Forsaken Children</a><br/><br/><a href="http://theforsakenchildren.org/day-two-sunday/">Day Two: Sunday</a></p>
