The children had one week break in November and after that the school passed a quarantine (due to the flu) for another week. But they went back to school on November 16. We continued our project and offered them a warm meal, lessons and different activities. We took advantage both of the break and the quarantine week. During this time we were able to work with the women, to attend the church's Bible study and youth meeting and to visit the sick.

When we got together with the women, we strengthen one another through prayer. We all enjoyed our gathering because we were able to get to know each other better.

Beginning in December, I plan to help Mariana, the pastor's wife, to make Christmas cards. It takes time and ideas. We decorated the classroom with the kids' crafts.

Our cook got sick and I had to take her place. It hasn't been easy to cook, wash the dishes, and set the table, but I did everything for the Lord. I had the opportunity to see for myself that what she does is not an easy thing. God taught me a new lesson. I learned that I would not always succeed in what I had in mind, but I could know for sure that He was in control. I have to completely surrender. That is how we grow, step by step. I thank God for everyone who supports me financially and in prayer. Blessings, dear friends!
