Mas Vida Day 2

Hola Mas Vida Followers!!!

We are all fully rested and may even be getting used to the heat and humidity...maybe not. After an early start this morning, we had a great time of devotion with the group before we started our first class. We had 18 students today and one translator. While the five medical team members were in the classroom teaching, the five on the other team were working hard at preparing food for distribution to a nearby town.

After eating a delicious authentic lunch prepared by one of the church members, we finished class and hit the field. Only two minutes southeast of the building, we delivered food to a very impoverished area on the levee. We were surprised at the joy on the faces of the people we encountered. Each of the bags we delivered was enough food to feed a family of four for two days.

Because of the hard work of the food preparation, we have more than 120 bags at Hope Vocational / Technical Institute to deliver over the rest of the week.

We are taking a quick rest before dinner, then we will be at it again early tomorrow.

Until Next time,

Matthew and Andy for Team Mas Vida
