This week,
Shaquanah has been continuing to help out in the school at the Central Church. Although
many of the young kids can be challenging at times, she is doing a great job
mixing discipline and grace to show them the love of Christ. She’s also helping
out Violeta in the office. For anyone who doesn’t know who Violeta is, she’s
pretty much the “go-to” person for the Potter’s Field Ministry here in El Salvador.
Jesse and I have
been continuing to help Randy and Trevor with the projects at San Martin. We
poured the concrete foundation that will hold the water pumps for the bungalows
where the teams will be staying. We also continued working on the steps. They’re
starting to look really cool now that we added bamboo railings! On Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday afternoons, there’s an after school kids’ program at the
San Martin orphanage. This week, Jesse and I have gotten plenty of
opportunities to hang out with the kids that attend the after school program
and get to know them as we play with them, talk with them (what little we can
say in Spanish), and help them with their homework.
This coming Wednesday evening is when the
first mission team is coming. They’ll be here for a whole week. Jesse and I are
going to be staying in San Martin with them and helping Aureli with cooking for
them. We’re both excited to be working so closely with the team, but we’ll be
having to get up quite early to help make breakfast every morning. So keep us
in your prayers that we won’t go crazy from any lack of sleep.
As always, thanks
for all the prayers. God bless.
