After a long day of travelling, our weariness was quickly forgotten as we were greeted with such a warm welcome. The kids met our bus with huge grins, welcome signs, bouquets of handpicked flowers, and an American flag. Everyone was excited to be reunited and/or meet new friends. The children had been working on some songs to share with us. The afternoon continued with delicious taquitos and vegetables and games galore. The language barrier did not stop us from having tons of fun. Our team was amazed by the light in the eyes of the children and how they lovingly interacted with each other and some of us who were complete strangers moments ago. We had a wonderful time touring the foundation and spending time with the people here. We concluded the night with Bible readings and prayers, then a team meeting to prepare for Vacation Bible School tomorrow! We are looking forward to meeting more of the kids from the community and sharing with them the joyous news of this Easter season. Stay tuned for more of our adventures!
