Today we got to visit our schools The schools that my great grandma started. Ojo De Agua and Los Bordos have always had a special place in our hearts as our first schools that we visited. We go back to visit these 2 every time we visit. Our students that have already graduated come back with us everytime to help out and they love on the kids even more than we do. They treat all the young students like their own littler brothers and sisters. This trip, our graduated guys brought one of their soccer trophies and had the 2 schools play a game against each other. The winner got the trophy and the kids had a blast. We had a party with huge pinatas, had a dance party, and painted the girls nails, had a big lunch, did some crafts, and Annie got to share Jesus with all of the new students. Annie has such a way of relating to kids and they listened so intently to everything she had to say.They were so excited to hear all about it and all of them watned Jesus in their lives.
These 2 schools are always the hardest ones to leave. We’ve gotten the privilege of spending so much time with the 2 teachers and families there over the years. My favorite thing is to see how the families, teachers, and graduated students shower so much love on the kids. It doesn’t matter how little they physically have in their lives, they pour out everything they have to them. It’s such a testimony to me of love and community and definitely one of the highlights that I am reminded of every time I’ve gone.
