The
mothers of the center preformed a traditional Mexican dance.
Dear friends -
11 of us arrived from the USA last night (1 a few days ago).
Unfortunately, at the last moment, the Mexican Customs officials
informed us that they would NOT allow our medicine into Veracruz.
We had just enough time to repack our bags with school supplies instead
of medicine. So we will focus on construction of our
permanent center and working with the children in our Laguna Center
rather than clinics.
We had a great day today. We visited the land with our
architects and made plans for the first week's
construction. Then we worked in the teen backery, had a
eucharist and then welcome ceremony. The
children welcomed us with amazing dancing. The
big surprise was that 8 mothers from the center joined the
dancing! We had fun and gave each child a
bracelet of beads with "Amiguitos" spelled into them which
volunteers in Colorado create.
Thank you for your prayers and please continue. Even though
the building is not complete, if we progress well and complete just
enough, the children will move into the new center! This is our
hope and prayer.
