Day three has come and gone quickly, with each experience showing us how blessed we are and how much the people of Sumpango benefit from having God in their lives. We spent the morning and afternoon conducting home visits with the families who will be receiving bunkbeds from the evening ministries. With each visit we were able to build relationships with the families and pray for them.
In the evening we continued our Bunkbed Ministry with lessons on alcoholism. Amy taught parents about addiction and how it can become a problem not only for the addict and his/her family but even generations that follow.
Jen led a lesson on alcoholism with the children. She focused on helping them understand all of the wonderful things that God has made them to be (intelligent, beautiful, kind, brave), and how alcohol can diminish those qualities. The children then made "Yo Soy" boards where they were able to create a mural that shows all of the wonderful qualities that God has given them.
We continue to ask for prayer for the families of Sumpango and hope this week will create new hearts for anyone suffering with addiction.
Hasta Mañana,
Team Guatemala
