Journey Group

Well, a couple days ago, we said good bye to the second Peru mission group. This group was from Arizona...I'm going to have contacts all over the country by the end of my summer!!

It was a group of 9 people who were here for about a week. We continued on with the work at the Guardaria (where we were working with the first team). We moved bricks to the roof - again preparing for the 2nd floor to be built. Then, we also painted. We added color to the white walls the first team painted. The main color we painted was yellow. The main room and the hall has been painted yellow (the bottom half of the wall). Then a large back room has been painted green (again, only the bottom half). Then, out front, we painted a cream color on the bottom half of the wall and a bright blue around the windows. It's been fun waiting the building come together with the colors. It is much more bright and friendly and inviting now! (I'll add pictures later.)

It is fun watching the groups because every group is different. The group make-up and the people who come on each team. I have enjoyed getting to know the teams and becoming part of the group. It has given me ideas of how to help groups in the future.

Tomorrow I will be helping with another team, but this will be a short time as I will be going to Chepen and helping out with the church there while waiting for a team to come help with their construction project.
