God continues to enable us to bless the village of El Doradito (Buen Esperanza). With a generous donation from Oryphan's Heart, Wellspring of Life was able to purchase bunk beds for the children in the first two completed homes. We delivered them this morning and while Mauricio and Joyce assembled the first bunk and taught others to do the next two, our children taught them how to care for God's earth by taking trash bags and picking up the garbage around the village...and there was lots! Along with giving them homes they never dreamed of we want to change their mind sets, their thought patterns, and help them to find new priorities. One way to teach is to lecture; a better way is to demonstrate...the children chose the latter.
Cesar & Rosa teach Canchita & Rosita the art of clean-up!
Pedro, Rosa, & Angel on garbage detail...
Full bags, time to get another bag...
Here comes the pillows...
And the mattresses...
And the beds...
And the assembly team of Joyce & Mauricio...
The finished product with new occupants: Consepcion & granddaughters Dulce & Canchita!
New sheets, new mattresses, new bed: ready for some good sleeping!
Joyce says, "Outta my way!"
