In the 1970s I worked for two years at the Paraiso Infantil Orphanage down in Colombia, SA. The picture on the top right shows it as it was then. I was there with Voluntary Service Overseas, a UK organization, and worked as a nurse/social worker with the babies and children. Over the past few years several of the children (now adults) have contacted me and one recently returned to visit the orphanage, which is now a missionary school. The photo on the top left is what it looks like now, not much different after thirty years. It was an interesting walk down Memory Lane!
