We spent the day at the
Aguilares church today. The kids looked like they had a lot of fun playing
catch with water balloons, soccer, and building a pyramid out of plastic cups
without them collapsing.
Gabby was in charge of the
face painting. Some people got flowers, butterflies and some vines. Other kids
got a pair of glasses, a painted nose and a beard or mustache of some type.
They looked very cute. Hopefully, you will see them in some photos.
There was a church service later
in the afternoon. Jessica, Allan and Carla (of the YFC El Salvador Team) gave
testimonies. Vanessa brought out her guitar and played songs and Sara, Jessica,
and I joined her in singing the Revelation Song, Mighty to Save and Came to my
Rescue. Towards the end of the service, the pastor prayed for Jessica and all
those who were struggling with issues or health problems.
The theme of spoiling Karla
and Stephanie continued today. Stephanie started crying when we were getting
ready to leave. She hugged several people, possibly everyone on the team and we
hugged her back. Karla also gave some hugs but chose to leave and stayed in the
background. We still knew that she was crying along with her sister. Even Karla and Stephanie’s mother showed
emotion as she said thanks as we got into the van. I am looking forward to hopefully seeing
them and the rest of their family again next year.
