Here are the pics that I promised. There will be lots more, so stay tuned!
Me, Donna, Anna, and Summer at the Jesus Statue the morning that they left. :(
This is the Jesus Statue at night, it was lit up, and really pretty. It sits on the mountain and overlooks the city.
Little miss Maryuri eating some of Saul's Birthday cake...and licking the plate clean. haha
Mario being crazy yesterday when we were playing outside.
This is Daniella she is such a sweet girl..but has been in some tough places. This girl has been through more than many of us can even begin to fathom. But she sure can be a sweetheart.
The next pic is a 4 year old girl in Hospital Escuela who was in the malnourishment ward. She probably weighed 10-15 lbs. maybe. She was so tiny, and fragile..it must have hurt her to even move..she just layed there. The second pic is a baby named Christian at Nuevo Oriental which is a feeding center and a day care. They feed 300 kids every day in a tiny tiny building. They run a day care center because in this community it is very unsafe for parents to leave their kids in their house by themselves all day, which many parents do so they can go to work to earn enough money to maybe buy something for dinner. Most of these kids eat lunch here, and that is the only meal they get every day. On Tuesday of our trip we got to help serve lunch to these precious kiddos.
This is a little boy at Nuevo Oriental..We had been playing all day and so I was pouring some of my water into his mouth.
This is me and Abby...it was getting a little late..lol
This is the Cathedral in Santa Lucia. It is the oldest Cathedral that is still standing in the Western Hemisphere.
Ok, now its time for a quick nap, since there wasnt much sleep happening last night, then lunch time, and then my shift starts. Ill try to update tomorrow.
