YWAM Visit

We recently had the opportunity for a team from YWAM to come and spend a few days working with us at the home. They trained at the YWAM base in Belize and were in El Salvador for a few months of out-reach work and offered to help us with whatever we needed. 

They spent two mornings supervising the kids while we did staff training, and then tackled the task of cleaning up our yard (which was in definite need of some love) and planting a garden.

They also joined us for a climb down the volcano, El Boqueron, on Mother’s Day.

At the bottom are a bunch of rocks that have been painted white. Climbers often rearrange them to say different things. We write wrote, “We Love Mami” in honor of Mother’s Day.

And finally, they helped us paint the house of Pastor Luis and his family. A previous visitor had donated the funds for paint and supplies, so the YWAM team made it happen. All in one day!
