Picture Post

Danny is back in Ciudad de Dios today, but I am stuck at home, recuperating from our work day yesterday, where we spent about 6 hours in the (very strong) sun cleaning up the land that El Camino has bought to plant a church in Ciudad de Dios.

Yesterday confirmed that I am not cut out for manual labor (to my credit, I´m only on my fourth day of antibiotics). But Danny had a great time working with the other guys to clear massive stones out of the earth.

Most interestingly, since the land that the church bought used to be a slaughterhouse, as we were cleaning out the rocks, we would periodically find bones/packed manure/cow hair. Yum yum! I will be thinking about that next time we have hamburgers.

Here are some pictures from the great Father´s Day event that was hosted at Ciudad de Dios:


Judy and her dad - they were both very excited for this picture.


Ivana - my little helper, who accompanies me everywhere in Ciudad de Dios, always holding my hand, and likes to hog the prime spot of sitting on my lap.


Mr. Antonio - this gentleman came alone to our event and we adopted him as everyone´s grandfather. He took special care to have a very dignified picture taken of him, and I appreciate that.
