The group here is doing very well. We are in high spirits and are getting much work accomplished here. Last night we went to the School of Champions, where kids that do well in school go to learn more in hope to get a decent paying job in Puerto Vallerta. While there we passed out bread and food to all the kids that attend. They got the opportunity to listen to a sermon directed towards their age and sang many common songs that we, the group, used to sing when we were of that age. They were very excited to get food and were pleased to see people from another country who had come to take care of them. I can still picture the smiles on their faces. Patrick went around and took many pictures of the sight and of the children who were there. The kids were very fond of the digital camera he had and were estatic when they saw themselves on a screen. All in all the kids had a blast. Today we went to two daycares and helped do some work that needed to be done. At the first one we did a lot of yardwork: weedwhipping, sweeping, and using the machetees(don´t know if I spelled it right but it is the giant sword things):). The weedwhip broke at the the first sight and we had to work it with a missing part, but we were able to get both sites done. At the second site we painted a room in the daycare and fixed up the area in front of it. The painting was messy, but we were able to take a shower afterwords so it was fine. The group is now about to go and give out some dental supplies and food. We are fine and know that we are in your prayers and we thank you for that. Tomorrow it is Tony´s turn to write again.
