Blog Post Number Two
By Rachael
This past week has seen “progress” made in our investigations.
On Good Friday we went to visit a Missions Ship that was moored in town….we had just written to Mercy Ships to find out if they would take us and it seemed like a good time to go and look at a boat! Unfortunately we’ve since heard, there are too many of us for the Mercy Ships;-(
BUT…..Global Volunteer Network have not ruled us out…so now we can see if we can be of any use on any of their programmes around the world.
AND….the owner of Anak Ranch in Mongolia is (apparently) “enthusiastic” about the prospect of us coming…but we need to wait and hear from the horse’s mouth, so to speak. An email from his right-hand-man might not truly reflect his own position (oh, but we hope it does).
PLUS….our friend Becca, who lived and worked for many years in Romania and who is just about to return there, is seeing if she can line up some volunteer work in an orphanage for us.
There is so much you *could* do. Having lots of children is not actually a bad thing – it just helps to narrow down the options you can realistically be involved with!!!!
