QUINN!

Sooooooo excited!!!  

Just learned today that one of the darling boys we met in July is available for adoption!!!

Introducing...

QUINN


Quinn is such a sweetheart!


A darling 8 year old BOY!


Yep, all boy!  
Loves boy things like playing with Legos or watching cartoons on TV or playing with his foster siblings.

Yes, you read that correctly!  Quinn is currently living with a Love Without Boundaries sponsored Foster Family.  He also started school for the first time in his life.

We had so much fun with Quinn and all the kids this summer.  Our very first day at the orphanage, the children entertain us as their guests with a wonderful performance!  Singing, dancing, costumes, and makeup on everyone.


Quin performed in several numbers.



On of my favorites told the story of animals boarding a bus.  Such a cute little gray bunny he was!


He was a bit quiet and shy but also appeared very comfortable with his friends.


When we did an art project with the children, my teammate Gretchen's art buddy.  They had a wonderful time together, and he was so helpful as they created their masterpiece.  On our last day, the children presented their art buddy with the framed picture we created together.  Such a treasure!



Oh course, like so many of the kids, he LOVED having his picture taken and loved all our cameras.


Della, our guide, took quite a few selfies with some of her favorite kiddos, including Quinn.

From the perfomance on Monday afternoon, to playtime outside in the courtyard, I captured a few moments of video...







A quiet, curteous, fun-loving, well-mannered, endearing little boy...
Quinn waits for his family to bring him home!


Has he touched your heart, like he touched mine?  
Are you looking into the face of your son?  
Or can you share his story with others, to help his family find their son? 

Or do you long to become a storyteller for children like Quinn who wait?  I still have a few more openings for team members to join the ACT Missions Trips team I will be leading November 12-22, 2015, to return to the orphanage that has been Quinn's home for too long, to love on the children and the staff who care for these precious kids, and to give voice to their stories.

UPDATE - Quinn (or AWAA's Bryce) has a family reviewing his file.  Prayers appreciated that they can move forward with his adoption.
