The Kherson Ukraine orphans, their accompanying acting troop and caretakers arrived in Williamsburg, VA on November 20th. HeartforOrphans is the other group and their website is http://heartfororphans.com/press/shoemaker.pdf
The Kherson group will spend two weeks there, then fly to Denver,Colorado. We will put the kids in three groups, staying at three different host homes. We will be one of the host families and the kids will spend each evening and morning with the three host families before being reunited for their daily activities and community involvement. (It is my understanding that they are in individual homes in VA).
What we won't go into in great detail is the hours and days of planning for their one week with us. We have had overwhelming community and volunteer involvement besides the three host families participation. Since this is our first hosting trip, the three host families are the three UOO member couples: The Carmen's, the Stoesz's, and the Rogé's.
