Guate-ever - June 5th

Today was pretty exciting as we all went in the mission field and many of us for the first time.
We split up and sent one group to Kairos school and one group to Yalu.
The Kairos group, got acquainted with all the students and played some games and had some fun with the kids. It was a short school day. We began to setup the computer lab and it looks like later in the week we may build a desk and a wall to further geek it out. The kids were so excited about us being there and the computadores! One part of the Kairos group went to house building project in the same area. They assisted the Guatemala masons as they begain laying cinder block.
The Yalu group had their first try at converting corn stalk homes to Tin homes. Yes you read that right. We have bought 100 beams and 100 sheets of tin so far to help convert these folks homes from cornstalk walls to tin walls and improve their roofs. Like Phil said...are we really having an economic crisis back home.... kinda puts things in a different perspective. 2 houses were completed many more to go.
