Nathaniel is very precious. Ms. Lynn and Ms. Kim had come to the orphanage construction site to check out the construction and saw a young girl with a very little baby. She came over and talked to Ms. Lynn and asked if we would take this baby boy. He was the only child of a 23-year-old mom. His mom died 8 days after he was born, they say may be due to heartache. Nathaniel's dad got his mom pregnant and left her and never came around again. After mom died they tried to contact dad but he would have nothing to do with his little baby so Nathaniel’s 19-year-old aunt was looking after him. When he came to us he had never sucked on a bottle, they feed him at 2 months old by a spoon. They feed him boiled crackers and some milk. He was very little when he came.

Today little Nathaniel is growing and thriving under love and nourishment. He has very big, brown eyes that he is finally growing into and has big hands and big feet, He will be a great man of God someday and a strong leader.
