Preparing to leave La Plata

We have got to know the kids at the orphanage very well. They are all very beautiful and have many dreams. The kids are all very energetic and are fun to play with. I wish I could bring them all with me. The orphanage is called The Kings Refuge. After we get back in the States I will send pictures and interview details to someone that will regulate a website for the orphanage. The will be used for helping support The King´s Refuge and also the kids individually. So far we have gone to see on professional soccer game with the kids. This Saturday we are going out to a park where we will spend most of the day just hanging out for our send off.

We will be leaving on Monday afternoon in a double decker bus for Mendoza. The travel time is about 12 hours. This will be my first long bus experience. I don´t think it will be a big deal, but maybe some great sight seeing. I have been filled in that we will be doing some work on a ranch, as that is where the YWAM base is located.

Just about 4 more weeks to go. I am excited to see many things here and also meet great people. There is much more to be done on this trip but it has already felt like we have been here a month. Some of that is probably because I am having a quick refresher course in the Spanish language. I have been able to communicate with the kids because they are willing to help back but it is slightly difficult with going to restaurants and some stores.

Other than that everything is going good. I appreciate the prayers greatly. This has been a good growing time and I hope to love more of God´s people through this experience.

 

Blessings

Mike
