Today (Thursday, 7/14) we went back to the camp to spend our day with the second group of kids. We started the morning off with an amazing breakfast of fruit and eggs. After we ate we played with the kids outside, I made a couple of friends with the children which is always my favorite part. There’s nothing better than seeing them smile and run up to you, knowing you’ve made a relationship with them.
After playing with the kids for a while we heard a testimony from one of the older girls working the Compassion. Her story was heartbreaking, but also inspiring. She discussed the hardships she faced in her teen years and how going to church saved her life. After hearing her testimony, we played with the kids some more and then ate an incredible lunch of empanadas and potato soup. I ate every bite!
Then, I got to go to the lake with the second group of kids. The lake was absolutely beautiful and the kids were so excited to see the view and get some ice cream. After we returned for the lake we played games with the third group of kids and had a great dinner of hamburger and fries. We finished the night with singing worship songs with the kids.
