Today we began the day with some construction at the church. Painting doesn't sound hard until you start to do it. We had to sand and put primer on which sounds simple enough but we kept having problems with paint peeling off and then we would need to start over or add something new. Plus we all had dust everywhere from sanding. It was crazy. I am really proud of how positive everyone remained. At times it really sucked but no one had a bad attitude. Everyone saw what needed to be done and got it done.
After lunch we went to The church in Ciudad Nueva and prepared for Semillas. Finally we got to do what we have been preparing for since last week. The kids were cute. I remembered that I don't really like kids so much so I tried to do more of the background jobs. Especially since I was already having a difficult time with communication. Kids have a way of being very blunt and I know I would get a lot of weird looks because of my gringo Spanish. It was fun to see the kids excitement over the program we had made for them.
Tonight I had a little time so I threw this video together. It's not the best quality but it will give you an idea of what we did today :)
