This morning after a good breakfast, we traveled to Santa Elena, and prepared everything for Vacation Bible School. We then headed over to the store to purchase the food we will need for food distribution that we will be doing this week. We are looking forward to visiting the homes tomorrow and getting to spend time with the families.

June 29, 2022 was the last day of VBS at San Jose Succotz Church of Nazarene. As was expected we had a good attendance of the kids. They just loved playing with bubbles, balloon tossing, they enjoyed the music and listening to Bible stories. At the end, we also prayed for the local pastor.
