We went to the school again and worked in a couple different groups. One group played a pictionary-like game to help the students with their English (and our Spanish, as it turned out!). Another group participated in a worship rock concert led by Dana. Dana was rocking the braids and a colorful bandana so once we threw the guitar on her and had her jammin on a stage, the hippie look was complete! The kids definitely made the mosh-pit effect as well! A third group made wordless books with the students in the classrooms (which are tents). These wordless books are simple bracelets made from a string of hemp and with black, red, white, green, and gold beads to symbolize significant parts of the Christian walk of faith.
It rained around 4 pm today so school was dismissed early! Because of rain! We were pleasantly surprised and quite joyful to be caught outside in the rain :)
Here are some pictures from the last two days that we got the chance to upload:
