March 14

We began our day in the paradise of Jaguar Creek. It is quite beautiful and very relaxing to be here. Our work day at the school in Armenia was very rewarding and informative. I have posted several pictures of our day in a picasa web photo library, you can view them at https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/srediruname=116875434378867764011&target=ALBUM&id=5584091628935776353&authkey=Gv1sRgCLjEm5ek6ouSXA&feat=email



The students gathered in front of the school for an assembly with some missionaries from Texas, there are about 400 of them and the school is growing. We met with the new principal, Roquelino Mendez, behind the school building and had his relaxed and undivided attention during the assembly. He has a plan for the school and gave us a list of his concerns and plans. Water is clearly his main concern, they have been in drought since December and the school has had occasion to be without water either for drinking or flushing toilets.

Tono planned out a workday of activity based on the principals prioritized list of needs and we set to work building doors and windows for the school building. Everyone had a very rewarding and fulfilling day at the school, they children were especially delighted and joined us to play and learn what we were doing during there recess.

We ended they day celebrating Don's birthday, we had a lovely cake. You will be able to see photos of it once I finish uploading them, the internet connection is very slow for uploading the photo gallery.

We all feel blessed to be here and are thankful for your thoughts and prayers. On a personal note, my health continues to improve, I am taking it easy and only participated for half the day yesterday and spent the balance resting at Jaguar Creek, thank you for your prayers!

Love in Christ,
