Halfway Point

So it has officially been 4 weeks and this is the half way point. This week has been pretty busy. There are a lot of things coming up next month with the Foundation (Lluvia de Gracia). What`s coming up??

A group from Life International is coming for a week to do a training about abstinence to better enable everyone at the clinic to teach it themselves. The foundation has been going a lot lately to schools and churches doing some abstinence training and this should introduce some new ideas or ways or doing things. We are having a one day retreat I think on Saturday the 25th with different training sessions. I am not 100% certain but I think everyday we will need interpreters and I will probably be helping with that. One day we are having free and I think we may go sight seeing or to the beach. But there is a lot of planning that has been going in to this and a lot more to do so pray for the details to be sorted out and everything to fall in place. Also, pray that everyone from LIFE will arrive safely and that the information they share would be exactly what the Lord would have them to say.

So about this week. What has not happened this week is a good question. Mondays are always busy because there is a devotion with the girls that are part of the program at the foundation and sometimes counseling. The receptionist wasn't able to come 2 days this week because her son has sinusitis and asthma and was having a hard time breathing. So I answered the phones and helped with some of the accounting. Dont't worry I didn't do much with the accounting just EXACTLY what I was told. I don`t know much about Excel so I followed directions carefully. Sometimes I would understand what the people said when they called but when they had a question, I had to have some help. Monica, the receptionist, said her son is doing better, so that is good.

I think, in an earlier blog post, I mentioned that my aunt had cancer. Unfortunately she passed away Thursday morning. My family is doing ok as far as I can tell, but please pray for them. It`s really hard being so far away and not being able to see my family at this time.

I appreciate all of your prayers and support thus far and I will honestly try to be better about updating this blog. I miss all of you very much and can't wait to see you. This has been such a great trip and I look forward to seeing what the Lord will do in the next month.
