This week my home church is here and I am loving every second of it. We have a really full week b/c they are working in a small community doing medical clinic, kids Bible club, ESL classes, construction… AND they are hanging out at Puerta de Esperanza with me getting to know the girls and babies, teaching English, making cookies, and just loving on them.
This was Monday at medical clinic. Teri was the ultimate baby holder for the morning :) She was hanging out with the people waiting in line and giving mommas a break.
C lives at PDE and just recently got a nursing 
assistant type of certification. She has been helping out a lot at clinic and its just really fun to see her serving and loving on people there!
Patti did chair massages all morning and was in VERY high demand. She’ll be going to clinic again in Armenia Bonito 
on Thursday to do massage. And she’s teaching our team kid Rebekah how to do massages so we will benefit long after she goes home, yay!
Yesterday was kids club with two really fun crafts, the story of Jesus feeding the five thousand, and lots of fun play time with balloons! The kids loved it, and I think the adults actually did too! There was glitter and paper everywhere, but that’s the huge upside to having kids club outside! Way less clean-up 
and lots of kids went home happy after hearing about how much Jesus loves them. What could be better?
P.S. There are men doing construction throughout this week, I just haven’t gotten pictures of them yet! But they are building concrete electrical poles 
and also stands for the new second hand clothing store that we are about to open. So, they are busy busy!
Speaking of the store, and of being busy, the Lord is just so funny in His timing. I’ve been looking for a location for the store for weeks, a place to rent. I
t has been a fruitless search with everything being so expensive or not safe or not available or not in a good location. Well, yesterday in the midst of my busiest week of the summer, I went to meet a guy who owns a great local exactly wh
ere we want to be. And guess what? He loves our vision and wants to help us and is going to rent me the space for an excellent price! So, we’re moving stuff in on Friday :)
The Lord provides. In His time and in His way!
I love his picture of guitar lesson. Who is really learning how to play? C or the babies? :)
We are busy busy. C starts university next week. Y is busy practicing what she has learned at beauty 
school. This week the ladies are paying her to give them manicures so she can practice and put a little bit away in her bank. She is so excited, doesn’t spend a penny, and is saving up diligently for the future!
Thanks for reading this and keeping up with us :)
