Friday at the zoo and KFC

Today was our last day with the kids. We had fun at the zoo and KFC. We are also sad that we have to leave the kids. The meal that they had at KFC was prob the best meal they have had in months. Many took home food bags for their family.

Please pray for our friend and interpreter Carmen, she is home ill  and we miss having her with us.

Thursday

Today we went to 2 more projects and did VBS we had alot of kids to do crafts, games & the puppet show with. They were split into 3 groups and rotated to the three areas. We also split into 3 groups and did 2 home visits times today.Viewing the living conditions of some of the kids is moving. Just makes you wish you could help each and everyone of them.
Tonight we are going to dinner at Carmen and Emil's house. (They are our interpreters and good friends)

Tomorrow we will go to the zoo with a group of kids from the projects.

We had a tremendous time in Lapaterique. Sunday we had church then went to a field up in the mountains where all of the villages had gathered. About 350 children were present. It was almost overwelming. What a blessing to us. We did games, crafts, the puppet show, and handed out hygene kits. We also helped feed the kids what is probably the best meal they have had for monthe. Rice, Chicken, Tortilla and a drink.
Monday we had a work day and did home visits to sponsored children. Seeing how some of the live was overwelming.
Tues we did the crafts etc with the kids of Lapaterique then had a bonfire in the evening. The people here show so much love for us.
Wed we had a meeting with the village pastors then traveled to the city.
Sorry this is short and has spelling probems but it is time to go.
