Philip Herter

Does anyone have information about a Christian orphanage run 1909 – 1918 by John (Johannes) and Agnes Herter in Kessab? These are my grandparents, and my father was born there in 1913. they had to flee because of the turmoil there in 1918, and the information I have is that unfortunately the orphanage closed and the children were scattered. I have some photos and letter my grandmother wrote at the time, and would like to know more.
