You may remember the chairs we unloaded from the container.
Well they went to good use!

Virginias Pupusas!
In the evening we did have three people who lost items. We always have a good time when someone forgets something somewhere. My niece quite possibly was one of them on this night, and let me say I am the one that found the item. I did give her about 5 chances to find her missing item before turning it in though, haha.
Today was a wonderful day! Part of the team went to Didasko for painting, another team went to the hospital and a Gatorade blitz, and my team went and built a house out near the dump.
Our build today was far up a hill, thankfully all the wood was already carried up to the site. We built for a friend of our bus drivers Marlon and Norlan, it was a family with four children. The build went very smooth once we took down the electrical wire, haha.
At the build site.
There was a beautiful few from the site.

Scott finally is here and got right to work!

After we finish building we all always go into the house and have a dedication to the family, say a prayer, and give them a small collection of house warming gifts. Today the house warming gift included a few small stuffed toys for the kids. I wish that a photo could capture the excitement that those kids had when they were given the toys. You can look at the pictures I post but I promise you they do not do it justice in the slightest.
When we finished building and walked down the mountain we ran into a couple who asked for prayers of healing. They had gotten into an argument with their neighbor and the girlfriend of this man was sliced pretty badly with a machete. I would say she had 60-80 stitches on her back. Please pray for her. I will say that the sticking she had done did look as though it was well done and the cut looked clean.

Angel gave me her camera to get some photos of one of the other teams.

Gatorade Blitz. The workers love when we do this!
When they see our buses they are hoping that the day is a Gatorade day!
The festivities for this evening were a lot of fun! Tricky Pat was challenged to determine which of 4 coffee cups was white because he claims that a white cups coffee is not as bitter. Colby and Dan are the ones that decided to put this up to a test. So they blindfolded Tricky, we took up a collection for the work fund for people to come and watch as he took sips from 4 different colored cups. I will try to find the video to post it if I can because I know someone took a video. Until then here are a few pictures to keep you entertained, along with a little more detail about how everything went down.
Ready for the challenge! We collected donations for the work fund.
Where is your bet?
The master tasting his coffee.
You see that smile? He knows it's the white cup..
He also somehow knew that the blue was blue!
All in good fun but they did lose the bet.
Never doubt the Master!
