A House Divided

On this lovely Saturday morning after eating breakfast our team went in two different directions.  Part of our team went up to TQ to work on the playground.  The children really enjoyed playing on their new slide, swings, tire tower, etc.  The rest of the team stayed in the villa and packed book bags for the children at Tejeras.  We had about seventy book bags packed and full of school supplies.  That's a lot of school supplies!  We had lots of fun listening to music while we joyfully worked before the group at TQ returned for lunch.  After we ate our midday meal, the group split again and three of us stayed behind to work on the craft for vbs while the rest went back to TQ.  The few of us that stayed behind also worked on a "Feliz Cumpleanos" banner for Bessy, one of our cooks daughters whose birthday we will celebrate tomorrow.  The group that returned to the Hogar continued working on the tables for the playground!  I missed seeing the kids at the home today as they got to play on their new playground for the first time, but I loved seeing pictures of their smiling faces.  Thanks for praying for the health and safety of all our team members.  Everyone that wasn't feeling well is slowly but surely getting back to 110 percent!
Packing the book bags.

Trunks full of backpacks for the children at Tejeras.






A verse about God supplying for our needs was included in the bags.









All five enjoyed their first swing together at the "Area de Recreacion"!
