God has brought us safely to Pan de Vida. After a few days in Tennessee to visit with family and friends, we continued the drive and arrived Thursday afternoon. Ira drove the whole way and I have to let everyone know that he fits right into the crazy rules of the road. It will also be fair to say that I am a poor passenger...ask Ira.
When we got to Mexico we went to Aguascalientes to visit Dulce Refugio Orphanage. It is the ¨sister¨orphanage to Pan de Vida through Children of Hope. It was great to see all the volunteers and the work that is being done. It rained the 2 days we were there but they continued to work at the site despite it. They needed to get the cement poured into the forms so they could dry. There is so much work to be done and the kids desperately need the home so please pray that teams and volunteers will continue to come and help also donations will come in for the materials needed. I am going to post a few pictures of the home they currently live in to give you an idea of the conditions. In one picture you will see the boys playing in the water. this is in the hallway of the existing home. The rain came in and they made the best of it. Also provides second service in getting the floors clean.
