Day 2, Feb. 16th-

Time for Part 2!

These are the houses we stayed in...there are actually four houses in a row that belong to the Moreno family, but we were staying in the blue and red houses. Emilton and Lucille's house is the blue one and that is where the married couple and the three guys stayed. All of us ladies stayed in the red house.

This is the Moreno's truck. If we were going only a short distance, this is the vehicle we used. Depending on how many were riding in it, we sometimes could use benches along the sides, but most time we stood.

This was our first full day there and we got up very early to start handing out invitations to the first Crusade before it got too hot. We paired up with some of the local Christian youth. We walked and walked and walked! But it was very interesting to walk the back roads and see how the majority of the people lived....very, very primitive.

There were pigs everywhere!!! Even in the houses. The piglets were cute, but they are an important part of the food chain there.

These two houses are pretty typical of what you see. Very primitive and they still use thatched roofs!

A local church that was putting on the first Crusade we helped with.

The kitchen area in the red house...I love their sink! And yes, there is a motorcycle in the house...that's where they store them at night.

Putting together bundles for the school children. They consisted of hygiene products and school supplies.

Our dinner....still alive!

This is Papita, Emilton's dad, with one of his horses.

After all that walking we still had enough energy to play volley ball in the pavilion across from our houses.

And that sums up our second day. I hope you are enjoying the photos!
