Another realm

I called into Centre of Peace (COP) orphanage today to catch up with Bhopal. She tells me that their planned move to bigger, better premises for their 70 children is not proceeding. They could only secure a one-year lease and there were just too many uncertainties.

Nevertheless, Bhopal was full of joy and smiles. Someone had just hooked them up with a phone landline and an internet connection. A website has also been put together for COP (www.californialanguagecenter.com/COP)

Whilst speaking with Bhopal in her office, I was amazed and moved at the sound of singing. Six children were outside the door, sitting around a simple little cd player and singing so beautifully to the tape that was playing. It was utterly glorious - holy ground to the max. Out of the mouths of babes ...

Indescribable - the beauty of the voices of these little ones at Centre of Peace orphanage
