Hello all!

It's been a great week and weekend here. Saturday night we had the opportunity to go to a Christian "hip-hop" concert that was put together by the Iglesia de la Calle (Street Church). There were both Christians and non-Christians, many singers and break dancers. There was prayer and some preaching, and me and the other girls really enjoyed it! Street Church is on Saturday nights, and I haven't been to it yet since we've had concerts, but plan on it for Saturday. I've met some of the youth and young adults that go and they have a passion for bringing the news of Christ out. Me as well as the other two volunteers are ready to get more involved in this ministry.

I've spent much time with the babies and toddlers, and am becoming great at changing cloth diapers! There is one baby in particular that pulls at my heart, her name is Romina. She is blind in one eye and does not have a second. But her condition I believe is the same as Eli's (my brother for those who might not know!) and I think of him often. It makes me wonder what he was like at the age of one, and what his life was like with his foster family.

The babies, as well as all the children and teenagers are beautiful and are anxious to give hugs and just simply sit on your lap. It's easy to get lost in the daily life, and I've still finding myself wondering if what I do is going to be life-changing to them. That's when the Lord quietly reminds me that these are HIS children, and anything I do or have ever done for the kingdom of God is not by me, but by Him working through me. There is an extreme comfort in that and just giving my day and anything I do to Him and have Him do what He will with it.

I hope everyone had a great Easter Sunday, I was able to skype the family and they put me at the end of the table during the meal so I felt like I was there! It was pretty entertaining.....God bless!
