una casa llena

So, a lot has been going on. We had two different groups come down, a high school group from Hill Country and a college group from the Austin Stone. It great was seeing so many familiar faces and also meeting some new ones too. In total we had 73 people in the house, not including staff. That is una casa llena!! Below are pictures that sum up Thursday-Sunday of spring break. Enjoy. I don't have pictures from the first half when HCCS was here, sorry.


Finally some pictures of the classroom. I had half of the kids in each class while part of the group took the other half to the beach. On a normal day picture a lot more kids and a lot less gringos!











Here the kids and group members are acting out a Bible story, group members are helping pass food out for the feeding program, and below, the boys are waiting, getting ready to go to the beach.








Having the groups here was so wonderful, not only for extra hands in the classroom, but also for good community with old friends.

Here I am hugging Damalia after class.













Beach day on Saturday with the group.

I was really excited to play ultimate frisbee!

Michelle was thinking otherwise!







On Sunday, I traveled with the group to Santiago and fed the kids lunch in a village called La Lomita.

Lots of kids here, just like Pancho Mateo and Chichigua, run around naked.
