Saturday we are doing a skit with some of the kids from the orphanage, at one of the Go Ye Ministry churches in another town. We are doing the "Sin Chair" if you have ever heard of it. If not, you can look at the example that we used to go off of:

In the background we are going to play Slow Fade by Casting Crowns and we are going to have the lyrics in spanish in case they do not know the song!
We are going to Trujillo in the morning to go shopping for the day and then we will ride the bus back to town so that we can work on boiling the water for the towels that we are cleaning from all the children. We did some tonight and I totally burnt my hand pretty bad. It is no bueno!
Tonight was missionary night and we had omelettes and they turned out really good. Crazy way of cooking it. We put our eggs and our ingredients into a plastic bag and then put the bag into boiling water and they cooked in like 10 minutes. Weird. But efficient. It was good food and good fellowship, just the right mix, right?
So much has been going on that I have neglected my book reading. Pray for some motivation to set aside time in all the busyness to get it done please. Much appreciated.
Did I tell you we are getting rid of all the lice here? And Aimee, Karen, and I are in charge? We took two pairs of clothing per child today to bag up for 72 hours. And we are going to begin shampooing everyone on Monday. We are going to spray all the mattresses and take away all the sheets and blankets and stuffed animals and everything cloth for up to 72 hours and bag it all and we are going to vinegar everyone's hair and then 7 days later we are going to shampoo again. We are getting rid of the lice! Woot! A long process though. Please pray for the perseverance and that God really clears the lice out!!
Anyways, I hope that everyone is doing absolutely wonderful. I think I have exactly 4 weeks until I return home! Joel and many other kids would beg to differ. Joel's birthday is a few days after I leave for the States and he was telling me I should wait and go after his birthday, if only it were that easy, I would totally wait. And then he told me I didn't have to finish school so there was no need for me to go back. And then I told him I could come back as soon as January-March if God provides for me to return then, and he said I should come in January because it is the soonest. It is so adorable but it breaks my heart at the same time because I really don't want to say goodbye to these kids.
But no worrying about that right now. I need to head to bed so that I can get the rest I need.
Much love sent to each of you. Stay blessed and rest in the Lord.
