VBS at The Compassion Site
We were split into 4 groups at the Compassion site: 1) Bible Story 2) Music and Snack 3) Crafts
4) Games. We all had a great time and even learned a lot from the kids. These are just a few pics from VBS!
Noa's "mad' soccer skills :)
Game time!
Tejeras Meal
(The meal our church provides every wednesday)
Words can not describe this place. The children walk by foot beside the highway (where 18 wheelers and cars are flying by) with their younger brother or sister on their hip. They are so young and malnourished that it just breaks your heart. Their mothers have to be 21 or younger and some have multiple children. There will be more to come about Tejeras, but some of the pictures should give you an idea of what it is like. I feel that we ALL left this place with a heavy heart. (Thanks to Mrs. Melanie Mullenax for being so devoted to this wonderful program.)
Where the children come and are fed...
When we returned back to the base site, we were greeted with this beautiful view. It was the perfect way to end such a long and heart filled day.
