Children from Heaven

The angels of an orphanage happily enjoy Children's
day with fellow initiates from Korea.

[Seoul, Korea] In Korea, Children's Day falls on May 5. On this day, the dreams of children come true, as they receive specially selected gifts from their parents, have fun in amusement parks, and enjoy the love of their parents. Therefore, Korean children eagerly look forward to this day each year. It is the most joyful festival of the year for children who have parents. But for orphans, it is the saddest and loneliest day.

Thus, on the eve of Children's Day, initiates from the Seoul Center visited two orphanages and presented gifts and necessities to the less fortunate children living there. We presented detergents and clothes to Song-Am Orphanage in Shiheung City, and Gwang-Myung Orphanage in Yangju-Gun. The children loved the presents so much that they jumped about in elation as they selected the clothes of their choice. These children, who are greatly in need of love, firmly grasped our hands in hope of keeping us there longer, and invited us to dinner.

We were deeply touched to see how happy they felt with such small gifts. They were just like children from heaven. We hope to provide them with continuous help and pray that Master's Love will forever take care of them.
