Verbena: June 22-30th


Don't look for me. I am taking the picture.

This group kept me busy. They had 41 folks on the team and all AMG team members were helping Phil (coworker for teams) and I with this group. The group split into two teams: construction and education.

The construction team worked on continuing to build an office space for our At Risk No More department. That awesome branch of AMG serves kids and families in crisis. Right now some of the At Risk No More staff is in the main building and the other half is in a building on the other side of campus. We don't have enough offices for all of the AMG staff so that gives me a good excuse to do things like this...
I took over our National Directors office and new van while he was on furlough.
The educational team did a wonderful job singing, doing crafts, and sharing bible stories with our 800 kids at our school called Verbena each day. The 45 teachers, 6 translators, and AMG staff did a great job collaborating with me to pull off this week. This group did a lot of preparation before coming to Guatemala  and the kids benefited from their efforts.
A clown came and visited the kids.
