A Few More Pictures, Prayer Requests, and Praises




Here is a picture of some of the houses at the Ark
(KAI orphanage in Jarabacoa). Each house has
enough space for up to 10 children. There are currently
68 children at the Arc, twelve new this year!


Here is a picture of a couple of my students working
in groups with a team from the US.


All the kids LOVE having teams come. They are
all smiles :)


I am with one of my good friends, Michel. She is the
8th grade teacher at ANIJA. She was very welcoming
when I arrived and is patient and helps me with Spanish.
I started tutoring her in English this week.

Please pray for:
-Guidance and wisdom for future plans
-Finding a prayer partner
-Learning and understanding Spanish
-Building friendships
-My role in helping with sponsorship
-Helping with volleyball

Praises:
-Good trip home for my gramma's funeral
-I feel very blessed for the house I live in
-God has been faithful in giving me patience with my classes
