Our 11th day!

Hola! Yesterday, after school, we went to the Mega Store and bought the girls at the orphanage a soccerball and a volleyball. When we got to the orphanage there were only 7 girls....but they all loved the balls! The whole time we were there they played with the balls. I tried to teach them to play volleyball, but they did not like the idea of hitting it with their hands and decided that it was a soccerball too. One of the little girls, Josealine, is kinda shy and low energy, but she loves to paint everyone's nails. So, I let her do mine.......they were a wreck....but she just loved the fact that I let her do them! We were planing on staying until 9pm, so that we could help clean up after dinner, but I got a really bad stomach ache and we had to leave early. I am feeling much better now and I am very well rested for the next week. Our spanish classes are going very well and we are learning so much. I feel very accomplished when I can understand the girls at the orphanage and respond to what they say. They love it when we can talk to them in Spanish. Well, we have to get ready for our class. We are here early. We will try to kepp y'all posted on this next week! Thanks for all the prayers! God is Awesome and is working in me right now, and has been through this whole trip. He is starting to reveal to me my purpose here! Keep praying for me.

Love In Christ,
