El Dia De Amistad

Today is El Dia De Amistad in Bolivia, Friendship Day. Picture Mothers Day but you are honoring your friends. There was a celebration with the staff and some of their families tonight. Lots of pizza and gifts. Bolivians use sweet corn as a pizza topping, try it, it's incredible. Marv is officially addicted to Dulce De Leche. The team made a number of home visits to sponsored children today. It is good to see God working in families as He is here. We saw real evidence of transformation at the Parent Retreat yesterday. This is the second one MCC has participated in. There were many more men attending. The men were engaged and affectionate to their wives, another significant change. A community leader was there who we see each trip. He recently committed his life to Christ, you could see the change through the glow on his face. It is a privilege to visit here and see how God is redeeming Horno Ckasa B. Your prayers, sponsorship of children and support of the teams makes no small contribution to this transformation. May He continue the work He is doing here.
