I was reminded this morning why we are here and why our work is so important. This morning we went to Monserrat and visited Carla, the director of the school. We brought our customary suitcase full of school supplies and then a teacher bag full of items specifically for the teacher. I always emphasize that the bag is ONLY for the teacher and not for the kids! Joe and I were talking with her about her needs and the needs of the school. She thought for a moment and said that she had been worried because she didn’t really have any supplies for her school until we showed up with our suitcase. Now, her students can color, measure, write, calculate, read and be ready for the school year.
She of course has many more needs, but we were able to help get her started.
Thank you for the continued good thoughts and prayers. We feel them and are so thankful!
Gracias!!

I love the blog – keep it coming! Those children and their teachers are so blessed to have a HETO group there, under your experienced and gentle leadership. You are so wonderful!
