Amor Del Nino Painting-June 12

At 7:45 we left to go to Amor Del Nino to help paint walls. A lot of us turned into blue and yellow smurfs. Afterwards we played with all of the kids and babies. we went to Cairos school for a Father's Day celebration. We had puppets, a drama, an evangelistic message and food. The kids did a power lab song, from last years VBS, and a song they made for their fathers. We got down-poured on for an hour. when we came back to the hotel, a few of us fell asleep, well i did, and a few went out to eat. It was a great day!
