Day 3

Day 3

Good morning families! Today was another great day! Our day started again at 5:00am with getting our sleeping areas clean and heading to breakfast, this time at Mister Donut, a local breakfast place somewhat similar to a Duncan Donuts. We sang happy birthday to Omar Jr., and headed to church to hear Omar Sr. preach. 

Our original itinerary had today slated as a day off after church, but in Salvadoran style, our plans got changed and today we facilitated Day 2 of our school outreach program! It went great! The team is doing as amazing as ever leading their groups in the competitions. The language barrier hasn't been much of an obstacle as the team finds new ways to communicate, and everyone loves them! Lots of hugs, high-fives, and Who-Rahs going on! And since the prison team joined us today, we had extra help making a total of 220 sandwiches! 

The champion team of the two-day camp (Abbie M's team!) was treated by to a dinner with us at Pizza Hut (a big deal around here), and we had a great night hanging out, celebrating and building relationships with them! 

Weback early enough to take some much needed time for silent reflection, and then headed to bed early to prep for tomorrow's excitement! (The girls actually REQUESTED giving up the only air conditioned room, and giving it to the boys, who gratefully accepted) 

That's all for now- we've been so blessed with the ability to update you with each day's activities, we hope we'll continue to get wi-fi access regularly! If not, we promise to post as we can!!! 

In the meantime, here are a couple shots from today:
