It's Sunday!

This is Dave.....

Wow, what a week it's been. I'll be sure to post a lot of info later, but it's been a great week.

Today is the day of our special surprise. All of the offerings and tithes that the kids at McBIC give, go towards this Children's Home. one of the things we like to bless the children here with is a type of special dinner/treat. This year's special treat is.... Hamburgers and cheeseburgers from Burger King!! While that may seem like an average thing to you and I, these kids very rarely ever get to eat any food from a restaurant or fast food place. So this is an EXTRA special treat. And to top that off, we are also renting some inflatable games for today!

Today's plans - more of a relaxing day as we enjoy the Sabbath.

Breakfast around 9 (which means 9:45ish)
Church at 10:30
Lunch
Inflatables
Walk downtown
Two families are going to Texas because of early AM flights.s

Thanx again for keeping our group in your prayers.


Here are a few pix.

At the "colonia". One of my proudest moments this year - when Josiah took the hat off his head and gave it to this boy. A special moment for me. Ricardo, the maintenance man form the children's home was also touched by this moment. he said a child taught him something about Jesus that day.

Thanks for the update and the pictures you've been putting on for everyone to see what is going on. Church was not as fun without you. I look forward to when you and the rest of the crew get back. See you next Sunday!
