Yes, you read that correctly! We did clothing distribution on the first day! Normally, this is done on well into the week, but it went well! We had several church members, from both Pastor Minor and Alejandro's churches, and community members stop by the church. It was during this time that we also got to meet several children from the areas we are serving in. What a blast, as usual! It is amazing what a simple gesture can turn into!
Part of our group got to venture out into the Costa Rican material buying world! They are still out buying materials; hopefully, we see them tonight! Haha, I'm kidding...but really the process of but supplies here is much different. From what I understand, you make a list, walk around the store, the person finds the materials for you, you have long conversations, materials are gathered and put together at the register, someone rechecks the list, and then you buy your materials! Woo...that's a lot! Good news, they are back with us!
I hope all is going well for our loved ones at home! And once again, we thank you for your continued prayers and support!
Here are some pictures from the day:
