Cultural day and Church

On Friday we visited a school that most of the team worked on two years ago. It was called Jehovah Shalom. Wow, how blessed we felt to see this finished project! . In the afternoon we visited another school in Leon called Lily of the Valley. We could hardly imagine educating 617 student in this crowded facility. As an aside 600 adults come here Saturday mornings for basic skills of reading and writing. Both of these principals were amazing visionaries, totally committed to Christian education and bettering their communities.

Although we worshipped with fellow Christians of a different culture,we felt welcomed, totally at home worshipping our almighty God.
