two incredible six year olds
before we left we determined that even though sophia Oage six) and jeanne couldn't make the trip, they would contribute. we purchased a tinkerbell backpack (and if any of axis reads this, for the last time this backpack was not mine) and filled it full of supplies for a six year old and prayed for god to lead us to a six year old that we could bless and pray for. well, here they are: Adela and Najayle.

Today was our roughest so far. we did the usual things: optomtry, hair cair, dentistry, medical, kids ministry and drama. we use the above to meet practical needs but we also get to pray with people, share testimonies, and minister one on one. below are the pictures that tell the story.
we were in a newly grated area in the dump. most of the ministry pictures are taken looking out from the more intense parts of the dump.
