Day 3

A very full and satisfying day....
After our very early start, which for most of us was even more difficult today, we headed off to our day's activities. Corrie, Santina, and Rita weren't to the apostolate. They had a tiring, emotional but fulfilling experience. They spent the day casting for the children. This involved bathing them, playing with them, feeding them, and keeping them entertained.
The rest of us spent the day building. We dug trenches, moved materials, mixed cement, bagged up sand, and helped lay bricks. The walls are starting to go up. The home owner's name is Melvin which made our own Mrs Melvin very happy... His family was delighted with the progress.
We've just had dinner and are awaiting night prayer so that we can go to bed and sleep the sleep of the just.
