Today the entire group went to the city to work with the kids, and those of us that did not go yesterday were introduced to an extraordinary organization and staff. We were able to sit down with the kids as they ate breakfast, and then the activities began. We had an amazing time playing games with the kids, having them take pictures, and playing some guitar. All of the children that we have met so far are incredibly individual and fantastic to work with.
In the afternoon, we took a bus to a village that has been working so hard to build a school. We walked around the village and we taken back by the kindness and warmth of the people in the community. The school, which was next to nothing ten months ago, had several buildings complete and others in the process. We got to sit and interact with some of the kids of the community in a classroom (which was beautiful), singing songs and painting all of our faces.
Our reflections were full of inspiration and emotion. We are all so ready for tomorrow...
