Wonderful last day at the mission

What a great way to end a mission trip! the 85 plus children that we worked with this morning were so much fun.  They were preschoolers and the teachers were just wonderful. The children loved the songs and antics and were just precious to watch.  They were so proud of their ants that we made from the egg cartons and the headband antennae that we made were a huge hit.  We had a wonderful week and enjoyed doing the program so much ourselves.  When she has time, I am going to have Lynn Bell write up how extra special this theme turned out to be.  All week we have had it affirmed over and over.  This team has been such a strong team and we all had such fun together.   We will all go home tired, ready for air conditioning, but so filled with the wonderful spirit of serving that we have experienced.  We look forward to sharing in greater detail with our church family about all that was accomplished and experienced. 

Glenn and the guys on the construction team completed the Maria Garcia's kitchen today and we are ready to have the dedication this afternoon.  What a wonderful story this is of being able to reunite a family and give them means to support themselves and live in decent housing.  The whole team is going over to the dedication and we have brought gifts to help decorate and for her to use in the kitchen. 

The eye glass clinic has once again been amazing.  They have consistently seen more people than were signed up and done it with love and compassion.  The people are all so appreciative and there is such need. 
We all find ourselves saying "next time we need to bring ..." It is truly a country in need of as much help as we can offer and we hope we can continue to send teams here in the future.
