Photos of Week 5

So, I AM back home, but I want to keep putting up photos of the kids, and the trip. So please continue to enjoy. This is Week 5!



This is Pope's group. They were SO much fun and invited me to spend a lot of time with them.



Tatiana braiding Charlie's beard.



They played Volleyball a lot.



skaterBoys. This is Jefferson and James, two of the youth from the church. Jefferson is really sweet. James is kind of quiet, but he's a good kid.



Evan, from Pope's group. He hurt his ankle real bad, but kept on working hard. We sat together and had a great time singing and talking.



Ellen, Maddy, and Nadine. All three sisters, and great friends who I miss terribly.



Here's Jesus, in his usual attire. We were teasing him about his pants.







They had a basketball tournament at the Center. A lot of guys came to play.



Adrian thought it would be fun for me to take photos of them throwing the basketball. This went on for a good 5 minutes.



This is Ruben. He's a fun kid.



Junior, Victor, Kasandra! Finally something Victor and I have in common. We both love photography.



JD, after the basketball tournament. He was really sweaty.



Here is another Disaster Reliefer, Teddy. He was like my big brother. And this is Nadine.



And this is the full Disaster Relief team for the first week. They were super sweet, and treated me like family. It was wonderful to have dinner with them every night. I miss them a lot.



This is Mary and Jerry. They were a sweet family who we ate dinner with every night. They worked with Disaster Relief, and would clean the shower trailer and wash clothes.



My original church. This is Eugene, the pastor, Alex, the worship leader, and Matt from Disaster Relief. We spent a lot of time talking. He's very knowledgeable.



This is Andrea and Dan. I stayed with them for two and a half weeks. They were really sweet, and Andrea helped me with a lot of stuff. And gave me plenty of dating advice, if I ever get around to that.



Victor doesn't like to smile. So Vanessa wouldn't either. Vanessa and I spoke together, and she prayed to receive Christ! Near the end of camp, she smiled more. And Stephanie is in Green. She smiled all the time.


Another adorable photo of Maye. She is Soooo cute.



This was super cool. They had all the kids draw their biggest fears on paper. Mine was tornadoes. Then they taped them all together, and taped it to the ceiling. The Bible story was on David and Goliath, and they used our fears as an example, and had one of the students knock them down "with God's power" to show that with God, our fears can come tumbling down.



These are the kids from Sudan. Raniya, Lydia, Shata, Angelina, Rubekah, Ethopia, and a few who I didn't get to meet.



Every Kid loves Pizza. Especially Mikey.
