Day 4: A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words



After another wonderful but long day, here are a few "before" and "after" shots of the backside of the dormitories that we are scraping, priming, and painting. I'm so proud of the team -- everyone is working so well together, learning new skills and having a lot of fun being the hands and feet of Christ.

Plus, I've included a few shots of the team themselves -- Amstelina, Diana, and Mirian are painting, and George and Jean are seen working with the children. Even the group from Idaho Falls lent a hand and even more was accomplished.

Teca and her husband, Gordon, (who celebrated their 28th year of serving as missionaries here in Brazil) shared that because of the covenant relationship with the Virginia Annual Conference as of 2002 the program has expanded from 13 to 53 sites. As a result, there are now 3,000 children in this program. What a blessing.
