It is the end of our third day and we are physically tired, but spiritually refreshed. Today we did one school assembly… It was super fantastic! A bunch of little ninos came up front to receive Jesus and pray the sinner’s prayer… It was awesome! After that we went to one of two food distributions… The first one was a very humbling experience… I (Miranda) saw this one girl who looked like she was about 10 years old and she had this big thing bulging from her back… At first I thought it was a tumor but then I remembered where we were and why we were there and I realized it was a bowl for her food… All the little children had bowls with them and after we were done doing our program we lined them up and gave them comida (food)… It made me realize that I have so much compared to them and I should not complain about not having enough stuff… After that food distribution we went to another one… We also did a program and then we handed out food to the children… All in all, both distributions of food were humbling experiences for all of us… After that we went to the orphanage for the afternoon and evening… It is always fun to play with the children… Some of our boys played futbol (soccer) with the kids from the orphanage and of course our boys got schooled… Then a BIG and SCARY thunderstorm occurred in the middle of our frolicking with the children… But we all made the most of our time with the children… We also got to do our program for the children… Luckily we get to go back on Saturday, or else the departure would have had mucho (a lot) of tears from all of us… After we left the orphanage we came back to the place where we are staying and we all got together in the breakfast room… Both the PA and OH teams experienced God in a totally spectacular way… He definitely showed up and wrecked some of us… But in the best way possible… Overall we had a great day… We can’t wait to see what God will do in the next couple days…
