Peru 2016 - Day 5 - Routine and Peter's Teaching - Part 2

Part 2

Back to Katrina painting. 

Taking a break.  

Dianne enjoyed painting with the girls.  

She learned lots about them.  : ) 

What movies to watch, songs to listen to, stuff like that. 

Back to the construction group.

They lifted the old concrete away using plastic sacks.  

Load them up 

and toss it into a pit close by.  

Others loaded a wheel barrow with sand for mixing.  

Others went out for their visits. 

Unfortunately no pictures of them today.  

Pastor Sergio working hard with us. 

He's not doing it as often as in other years. 

He's 53 now and realizing he's getting older. : ) 

I can identify.  

I see Craig is learning how to be a city employee.  
Watching Kayla work hard.  

More gathering of concrete.  

and more throwing away.  Came to a competition of who could throw the stuff the farthest.  

Who won do you think? 

Dianne and Katrina and Ella wearing their war colours.  

And chatting things up as they painted.  

Joycegina's glasses were coming apart so Judith tried to fix them.  

Oh, Pastor Craig actually did push some dirt.  

But I think Kayla has more dirt in her wheelbarrow. 

Joycegina wanted Lucy and Kayla to demonstrate the proper way to lift the bags.  Bend the knees.  

Steve loves doing this construction work in the heat. 

Just like his mom. 

Brenda went to visit a family she met last time she came.  

Sometimes families decide to stop coming to a church and this family did for many different reasons.  

Brenda wanted to meet with them and talk about the why's, etc.  She was able to do that and had a very productive visit, and got to know that they are attending another church and actively involved in it.  

This gentleman came up to the library to chat with us and show us his dancing skills.  : ) 

Ella and Katrina showing off their painting efforts. 
They even managed to get some paint on the fence. : ) 

Soon it was time for lunch.  

Sorry about that Andrea.  : ) 

Different chips but mostly the same food again. 
Ella was happy to get her ham and cheese. : ) 

Everyone settling in and relaxing from the heat. 
And talking about the morning happenings...if I can say it that way John ? : ) 

LEAH!  

The usual spot for the Interpreters. 
In the breezy part of the room
hmmmmm.  : ) 

We needed to start balloon making again too.  

Katrina and Ella getting to know Debora better.  

And showing her different songs with hand actions.  

I'm trying to get the pictures organized earlier in the day so I don't have to be doing it later in the evening. 
Seems to be working.  

Michelle and Miriam chatting things up.  

As are Annette and Jackie.  

We are going to be doing market place evangelism tomorrow. 
something new for us. 
Here are some of our group, with one Gamaliel church youth practicing the drama for tomorrow.  

Nice face painting.  

Takes a steady hand. 
I wouldn't have that today.  :  )  

Zoe is loving the face painting.  

The line never stops.  

Looks great Judith.  

Time to start playing outside with the kids again.  

Some indoor ball games happened today as well.  

Katrina and Ella played some ball bouncing games and danced to the music that was playing. 
Nice to see Katrina and Ella interacting with the kids.  : )

Miriam connected with a family today.  

And spent a good amount of time with them, and no interpreter.  She must have learned Spanish quick.  : ) 

More dance time.  

I admit I was tired today.  
The days do catch up with you when you don't sleep.  : )
So I rested for the morning to have energy for the afternoon and evening time.  

Dianne is ready to go once again. 
But first.....

Time to gather for opening songs.  

And prayer.  

A bigger group of people this time.  

They did my favourite song. 
SUPER HERO

The women met again today as well. 
They had a colouring devotional time.  

Time for the drama.  

Today was the story of the two slaves who owed talents and denari

And how the one who owed the more was not grateful and demanded from another who owed him much less.  

Dianne does a great job of involving the kids so the story becomes real for them.  

Colin was feeling it today too. 
I just missed him lying horizontal.  : ) 

Memory verse time.  

And time for kids to review their memory work.  

And then it was CRAFT time. 

Today it was a heart bead necklace.  

And Gigi started dancing with Genesis.  

Impromptu as always.  
I love Gigi's fun loving and positive attitude.  

And before we knew it it was the end of another VBS. 
Time for the TRAIN.  

Gathering the kids in the train line. 
Today we had about 65 kids.  

Tobie led them out.  

Hey, Craig can sleep while standing. 
So talented.  : ) 

New system today. 
Balloons out in the sand so kids have a chance to exit the building first.  

And then get their balloons.  

Everyone then packed on the bus and returned to the hostel, Except for Peter, Jackie and me.  

Peter set up for his nutrition talk.  

I went up to see the progress of the floors.  

Mixing has begun and these two guys were putting in the first floor. 
The work goes on with or without us, as it should be.  :)  

1/2 the patio redone.  

Peter relaxing as we wait for 5 pm to arrive.  

Our ride home.  

Time to open with a song.  

Pastor Sergio. 
That is a bright shirt.  : ) 

A nice group of people.  About 20 ended up coming.  

Jackie held a child so a mom could concentrate better. 
Wasn't a hard sacrifice to make.  : ) 

Here's what Peter was using as a reference guide for 
non processed, partially processed, and processed foods.  

He did a great job. 
Speaking pretty fluent Spanish. 
Made Debora's job very easy.  

Interactive time.  

It was great to see the women engaged in the topic of nutrition.  

And Peter was having fun as well. 

Outside a delivery happening. 
Strong man doing this.  

Peter's getting quite comfortable.  

Pastor Sergio loves the kids too.  

Just before we leave, a wonderful sunset.  

And away we go.  

I asked Colin to get a picture of the evening meal. 
Soup.  

Sauce 

Rice and veggie's with sauce mixed with chicken, and the sauce covering the potatoes.  

The group also did their video sessions, and then relaxed with card games and of course...PIGS.  

Which reminds me. 
I've never actually taken a picture of the group that LOVES to play PIGS. 
So here it is.  :  )  

Cute little container.  

Cute little pigs. 
But I don't get, or know, the rules, and everyone seems to walk away mad from this game, so I'm not so sure I want to know what it's about.  :) 

Ok, that's it for now. 
Talk to you in tomorrow's post. 
Letting you know how our Market place Evangelism goes.  

Please pray for the group as some of us are experience some stomach issues.  Not fun stuff.  
Blessings.
