Gracias a Dios I made it on time, even early, with luggage in hand! I arrived on Sunday around 12, and after the first day I already felt like I had been here a week! And that is a good thing too. The girls at the Promise House are very welcoming and loving. However, they keep trying to feed me. I´m a girl who knows how to eat, but apparently not enough!!
Everything is going well at the centers. The first couple days I really had no clue what was expected of me or what to do. Nadalia is an Orphan Helper´s staff member that helps out at the detention center. I bring a lesson or a chapter from the Bible and she helps to explain and teach the girls.
My favorite phrase in spanish is sloooow down, what and I don´t know that word hahaha.
Tomorrow I am going to prepare a lesson for the ninas at the orphanage. Pray that God would speak to them, through me and His word.
Dios le bendiga,
Lauren
Hey Girl,
ReplyDeleteI just found this entry. Praise God for your timely arrival and warm acceptance. Oh, Lauren, I am so pleased to hear you are actively involved and not wondering what to do.
Keep loving the people God puts in your path.
Love you so,
Kiki
