Although we only got to spend about three full days with them, we were sad to see the Salisbury team from North Carolina go. This team was led by John and Debbie Salisbury. John sits on the board and is one of our many bosses. They are a wonderful couple though and it was good to get to talk with them and report in on our summer so far.
This team did work on Evy’s house, which now has the beginnings of walls, painted, and did some more mural work in Casa David. Pumba from the Lion King now looks down on the Casa David boys! Needless to say they love it!
This week was a week off for the kids at school so this team took the kids to a water park one afternoon. We were gone, but from the pictures we saw and stories we heard it was a great time! The team also had a day of games for the kids. The kids were doing ropes courses, playing with shaving cream, jumping in pools of oatmeal, tossing water balloons, and much more!! They had a blast!!
Dropping this team off was sad for us because also going home with them were three girls who had been here since beginning of June working in the school. Two of the girls were John’s daughters and another was a friend of theirs. Scott and I developed great friendships with Claire, Elvia and Emory so it was tough to say goodbye. We are sure going to miss seeing them around.
Keep up with Scott and Sophie Wallace as they travel to Agua Viva Children's home to live as On Site Missionaries to the work teams visiting them in Guatemala.
