We are trying to figure this craft out for ourselves, so we can show it to the children! There was an emergency, where the craft teacher had to rush her husband to the hospital, so we were in charge!! This cute little girl is showing her final project! It is such a JOY to work with these children, and they are so polite, and appreciate ALL that we do for them! When they see us on the street, or when we are about to leave, they come up to us and give us hugs, and try to tell us in English: "Thank you very much!" This goes to each of YOU back home, who are praying for us, and who have made this trip possible.
The picture of the unfinished bldg. is the amount of progress which has been made since last year at this time! They were only putting in the foundation last year, and now the bldg. has stopped - due to no available funds. They are renting the place where we work now, but they would appreciate your prayers, so that the bldg. would start up again, and soon they will have a place of their own to hold all the classes, and Church services that they provide for the neighborhood.

I know you didn't know this, but the cute craft is really their symbol for the "evil eye!" I found that out when we lived in Mabton, WA. I wanted to do it as a VBS craft and one of the Mexican moms took me aside and told me the meaning. Live and learn - God knows your heart.
