This month we have been working at Cicrin Orphanage on Ometepe Island in Nicaragua.
It is so beautiful here and the kids are beautiful. There are two volcanoes on the island.
I have really enjoyed all that we have been doing. During the day on most days I have been doing construction at a pastor´s house and building a feeding center at the church. Mixing concrete in a pile on the ground (“the old fashioned way”), laying bricks and concrete, lifting concrete buckets, bending rebar, etc.
In the evenings we have been playing with the kids and doing fun stuff around the orphanage. Just the other day we celebrated the Quinceanera of two girls here. The 15th birthday is a big deal in Latin America. There was everything from a coreographed dance to an enormous cake, to tons of visitors…everyone dressed to the nines of course.
I have enjoyed our time here so far and really want to truly experience this last week of ministry on the World Race. God has done so much this year and I can´t wait to share that with you, my readers.
