Baños - Las Piscinas (the pools)


At 7pm, I called my friend up to see if we could go to Las Piscinas (the natural hot spring pools). Before I knew it there were 2 others going. We put together enough money to get a bus and BARELY enough money for the entrance fee (I haven't been this broke since middle school). Before I knew it the whole family of one of my friends was coming too! Last minute things are the best. We only had about an hour and a half to swim before it closed but it was worth it. I love these people.

5 Day Kids Club


I helped every morning this week with the kids club at Andres and Katty's children's minstry (the same ministry that I usually help with on Saturday mornings for neighborhood kids. This week was every morning kind of like a vacation Bible school). The kids learned about the GOSPEL! My job was to teach the memory verse and sometimes the games.

"ALPHA" Dinner


ALPHA is a new ministry that is beginning at 608 church. There was a dinner at a fancy country club place to promote the new ministry. The meal was very fancy and lots of my friends from church were there.

One of my favorite places to be


My little friend, Daniel, turned 14 last week. We had a "party" for him (just his relatives and me). His family is very big with several little kids (who love me, haha). We stuck matches in a piece of bread for his cake and I made cookies. I will miss this family.

El Chorro

In front of the waterfall on a very slippery overlook...with lots of wind haha







El Chorro!























Me with my friend, Sara. My friends have named me "Sara Conner" (from the movie The Terminator) so that is what they call me :)







My friends from 608 invited me to Yunguilla on Sunday. They also "invited" me to eat (which means that they paid for me) Shrimp Ceviche!...the first time eating ceviche:) We went to the waterfall, El Chorro, which was beautiful and then we played soccer until it was too dark to see.




The whole gang.
