God has continued to be faithful and good to us. The kids had the exciting opportunity to help out another missionary at her church. They did a song with their puppets. DC Reto was the name of the group, and the song was something like "DC Reto para los niños." At least, that's one of the lines I understood in the song.
This picture shows Cindy Lucas and her puppet, Carlitos Chocolate and the puppets that the kids are using. I forgot the names, but I am not sure that they don't change every time they use them. I will have to ask them, and the next time they do a puppet skit I will put their names in the blog.
This picture is the road we traveled on to the church. It wasn't too long, but we thank God we have a 4 wheel drive Speed-the-Light vehicle.This church was for a lot of kids, and it is in a very poor area near a city called Aregua. In Asuncion, there are a lot of kids who work the street washing car window, begging for money, selling anything they can get their hands on, and basically doing whatever they can to bring some money home to their parents. Usually, their parents use the money for alcohol or drugs. It is really hard to see some of these kids on the streets. Everyday now, we notice some of the kids from the church working different street corners. Many of them don't have any hope of having a different life. Please pray with us for these kids.
The other pictures are of some of the kids in the church. Most of them did not come to church with their parents. They either walked to church, or they came with some older kids. A lot of this is really difficult to see and understand, but we are learning that we cannot solve all of the problems that face these kids every day.
Blessings to all,
Charley
