San Lucas Day 2

Screening dirt to extract rocks...this area will eventually be a park for children to play with including a playground and soccer field.

Kate trying one of the Guatemalan beverages.

Bruce and Rita trying a different beverage while playing Cribbage.

Sr Rita won the first game of Bananagrams...can you get back to us on what some of these words mean?!

Bruce breaking rock to help make cement...the group breaking rock filled about 2.5 five gallon pails.

Jennifer sitting on a rock...breaking rock...deluxe accomodations

Bruce Kate and Jennifer were able to see a garden of medicinal plants including citronella!

View of Lake Attilan

Sr Rita and Barb spent the day at another village with the medical students from Wisconsin...they were pharmacists for the day.  Here Sr Rita is giving the children an English lesson...one, two, three

Barb enjoyed spending time with the chilren of the village, she also taught them how to floss!!!


Lesson of the day:  Everybody needs somebody all the time...whether you are playing soccer in the street or breaking rocks for cement or caring for the sick or enjyoing the children. We are constantly being reminded that we are all one global family and es muy bueno!!

We are counting on your love and prayers...we will keep you in ours.  Peace
