It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas...

...everywhere around Angel House!

We LOVE Parkway!

Parkway Church from Surprise, Arizona is spending the week at Three Angels. As always, lots is happening during their visit. The men are building a new kitchen for the cooks, the teens are spending lots of time loving on the kids and everyone is having a wonderful time. The mission is so blessed to have such a fabulous group serving!

Pumpkin Bread - Yum!

It wouldn't be any fun if we didn't get to EAT the pumpkin bread some of the children made. After baking the bread and letting it cool, everyone enjoyed a piece of fresh pen gimou in addition to their regular snack of Baguette and mamba.

Pumpkins In Haiti

It's fall in Haiti, too! Last week we read a book about the pumpkin patch, so of course we had to make something edible using PUMPKINS!!! The older six children helped make an amazing loaf of pumpkin bread.

As we went through the recipe, each child got

the chance to taste each individual ingredient (tongues out!)

except for the raw egg! :-)

Edward

The children at Angel House were introduced to a...newly-found snail. Edward, as the children named it, spent a couple of days at the orphanage.

Wanting the children to enjoy the amazing creativity of our God, the week was spent learning about snails and other wonderful animals God has created. What a fun way to learn --- hands-on with a really cool visual aid!During Edward's visit, Reece was the only one brave enough to hold the snail (including the grown-ups!) So once the snail lesson was complete, all the kids decided it was best to let Edward go back home - into nature, another one of God's awesome creations!

Thank you for making learning fun, Edward!

Happy Birthdays At Angel House

Marcia recognizes the kids’ birthdays each month with cake, a bag of goodies, and many happy birthday wishes! The kids put candles on the cake for however many years they are turning. We have a Birthday Calendar in our homeschooling classroom. Each child’s birthday is listed, so the children are learning when the birthdays arrive and that each person has their special day!

Yummy Storytime

Reece and Naitile received some treats for their lost teeth: APPLES! They munched on them while sharing with Elmise and enjoying some stories with Abbey.

Pumpkin Bread

Lots of baking going on at Angel House recently. It makes for a fun activity and a very yummy treat!

The girls enjoyed smashing and mashing up pumpkin to make the bread.

They took their job quite seriously and did it with a smile!

Bakin' a Cake!

Mixing up the batter for the yummy

chocolate cake!

Although it seemed like they were helping in the kitchen, Steeve and Reece were actually working on their reading as they followed the directions to the recipe.

Learning at Angel House is fun!

It's never too exciting to clean up after working in the kitchen, but the boys did a great job washing the bowls and enjoyed doing it, too. Bravo!
