Hola las familas en Los estados unidos! Mi nombre es Marissa, y estoy muy feliz, pero cansada. = Hello families in the United States! My name is marissa, and I am very happy, but tired.
Today we went to La Pasada de Belen, which was a teen mom home and daycare. The boys in the group painted the dining hall (pink and green!) and half of the girls cleaned a library, while the other half helped watch and feed babies and toddlers. After spending about four hours doing those activities, we went to the restaurant on site, which was a training restaurant for the moms to work at. There we ate AMAZING pizza and calzones. It was some of the yummiest food I have ever eaten in my entire life. Afterwards we all swapped tasks, and continued on for a couple more hours. Then it was back to the base, where we have spent the last couple hours walking to convenient stores and observing our various sunburns.
God has been doing amazing things for me throughout the course of this week, and I am so excited to see what he has for the rest of the week. The biggest God moment for me today was laying on the grass with a sleeping baby on my chest, just having a time in prayer and asking what God wants me to be doing for the rest of the trip. Big things are happening, and even more are to come!
Continued prayer for unity within the team and with our translators would be very appreciated!
Love you guys!
~Marissa
And for those of you wanting to SEE us, please be patient, we are still trying to get them from the cameras to the ipad to the blog.
