PRIMERA PIEDRA/GROUND BREAKING

What a delight to have Project Hope getting off the ground! This construction will allow us to receive more teens at Sagrada Familia. First phase is a much-needed retaining wall and first floor dorms. We had our celebration on Oct.3 and were excited to have our distinguished visitors here!

Friends

Of course, it was great to have friends here to visit with us as well as visit with the kids.

New Cubbies

Some of you probably remember the two rickety wooden boxes that held the kids´ book bags. Remember the tops were loose and you had to sit CAREFULLY not to fall in? Well, one of our new pieces of furniture is this cool set of cubbies to hold the bags. Ángela, Lizbeth, and Yasmin are all smiles.

Keeping Everything Straight

Over the years we have seen growth and expansion with the Casas. This year it was time to have an audit to help us keep everything accounted for in an orderly manner. I have to give an "aplauso" (applause) to Maria Andia for handling so many different financial pieces in this part of Peru. Many thanks, Maria for the wonderful job you do juggling diocesan requirements, Amigos del Peru requirements and Padre Ron requirements! To our auditor, Toni Brown, it was "business as usual." Padre would be a quivering mass of jelly on the floor if he had to keep up with all the details they deal with! Thanks again Maria and Toni.
