Sunday morning VBS service went really well. There were a lot of kids and they absolutely loved all the singing, dancing and the puppets.  Afterwards, we did a craft which got pretty messy. But, the kids loved it anyway.  I'm not sure how much the parents of the kids loved it when they got home, but anyway....


After lunch, I took Letty and some of the team to the grocery store.  Letty needed to buy food for the team and the rest wanted to buy coffee and vanilla. Literally when we were checking out, Letty gets a phone call from her daughter stating her son is sick.  Sure enough, I ended up taking them to the hospital.  So ONCE again, there I was sitting in a hospital waiting room. Tom met me with the other van so he could take the people and the groceries.  Apparently Moises got hit in a "sensitive" area while playing soccer yesterday and swelled up like a balloon.  The FEMALE doctor came into the room and Moises walked out of the room.  Letty told him to get back in there; he didn't have a choice about what kind of doctor to see. He was sent home with pain medicine and an antibiotic.  No slack for Moises as Letty said he was going back to church with us.  So, back to the hotel in just enough time to change my clothes and pick up the team.  Tom got a Nazarene nap, but I didn't.

Rigo told us at dinner that he has a plan for Maria and her children. His plan is to build a room for them on the church property so the girls would be safe.  He said he would give us an estimate of what it would cost to do it.  We are hoping that the cost won't be too much and just maybe, we can raise the money.  It would be so exciting to see those children being raised by a church family without the fear of these kids getting abused by the many men Maria associates with.  AND, if Maria lived near the church, the men won't be able to "visit."  We are certainly praying about this!





The evening church service was very nice.  Several of the team members gave testimonies, others sang and did sign language and Pastor Greg gave a good sermon.  It was a nice night.

Sorry this is a boring blog.  I have been so busy and fred at night that my brain isn't thinking of funny things.  Hopefully the next one will be better.
