Last weekend was our second weekend to go up to the orphanage. We love it up there! Beto got to play soccer with the directors´son and some of the girls from the home. Because it´s in the mountains and there´s not a lot of electricity outside, the girls turn in at about 8. Beto and I stay in a one room side part of their clinic which isn´t in use right now. It is nice for us, like a little get away. It´s really quiet up there and cold, so we have time to read, relax, drink tea, and sleep early and wake up a little late.
As you can see, Beto is quite popular with the little ladies. He´s got his own personal fan club up there. There are some pictures of the girls leading singing and of the church. It´s a small church that meets at another orphanage about a 5 minute bus ride down the mountain. We will be going again this coming weekend. The church has about 50 people, half of those are the kids. The older girls from the home teach the Bible classes. They are mostly mountain people, really poor and humble, a joy to talk to and get to know. Please pray for Beto as he preaches and for us as we minister and decide if this is where God will have us in the future.
