Friday July 17

On Thursday we spent most of the day at the volunteer house because of the flu. We helped sort donations and i got to relax a bit.

so i am not allowed to go to the malnourishment center any more because of the influenza. It is affecting sooo many people down here. So today i got to go to Las delicias and play with some children. Las delicias is a place run by the nuns were the poor kids can come and play. And we painted the library that the nuns are building down here. Today, I also got to make some home visits and help vaccinate some children (: IT was an amzing experiance! I even got to see my sweeties Veronica and Johanna at their home. I had no idea how poor they were.

And we got to see where Fr. Oscar Romero was killed and where he lived and the cancer hospital he worked at.

Tomorrow we are going to a field day at las Delicias and then we are going to the market (:
I am really looking foward to that !! They have such beautiful jewelry down here.

Then I will go to church at 5:00 at the cathedral where Fr. Romero was killed.

There are soooo many dogs here. But they are all vaccinated! So we can pet them.
Veronica and Johanna had 3 puppies that were like 5 days old.

well i will try to update pictures but i cant seem to upload them!

Love Jamie
