Two weeks without teams

so this is the second week without teams here at casa. It has been busy that is for sure. Last week the interns who were at casa worked with and did activities with the older kids, while the younger kids were having their last week of school. There were planned lessons and activities. I think the kids most enjoyed our week long soccer tournament. It was awesome just everyone gather together on the cancha and playing soccer. The winning team was rewarded with a dinner out. ANd second and third place recieved small prizes as well. Last week we had special people arrive who are great for the kids and are gifted in talking with children. These two wemon are very gifted counselors and I think it would be great if we could all be praying for the time in fellowship and devotion that these two women are going to be spending with the kids this week. This week begins their devotionals everynight and talking with the kids. The past two nights have been successful and the kids seem very attentive and focused on their talks with the women. It has been great to be here watching God work through visitors and loving these kids. Also this week, the interns in casa have been concentrating more on working with the younger kids, since they are finished with school. Every morning its a different bible lesson and craft followed by game time and lunch. Devotions have been every night after dinner. With our time hear drawing closer to the end all of us have been sentimental to say the least. But we are continuing to pray for perseverence and commitment to loving and ministering to and learning from these kids for the remainder of our time here. Though our hearts are heavy, we continue to go through each day with a God's peace and a strength we didnt realize we had. This week has also been at time for all of us to think and reflect on things that have been happening and Gods work changing things and hearts this summer.
For those who have been going to sobre el puente, the ministry has been going well. Although some kids espcially need prayers, I praise God that so many more children have been coming to eat, worship and learn with the staff and interns at sobre el puente. Please pray for the both the ministries of sobre el puente and casa hogar and that God would be at work and changing hearts and providing for us all. and that we would have the faith and trust in his goodness and grace.
