Open Arms for Asia

Our daughter Haylie dances with a group led by Sarah Grace McDaniel called "Reflections of Grace" and they performed a ballet version of "The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe" last Saturday at Cornerstone University. Ticket proceeds went to the ministry of 

Open Arms for Asia.  

The vision of Open Arms for Asia is to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the community in West Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh, India, thru the children of Open Arms for Asia’s orphanage. The children are nurtured physically, emotionally and spiritually in a family Christ-centered atmosphere.

Here are some pictures of the performance:
