Day 6 San Jose del Cayo

Today we were in a community close to the one yesterday. We were in a school and a church that were close to each other. There were alot of scabies in this community. About 170 school children came in lines for deworming. Ashley and Jess played soccer with the kids outside in a big open area nearby. We always leave a soccer ball behind in each community. It seemed like a community of just women and children. It caused us to talk about how the men leave for jobs in the U.S. and now there is a trend where the mothers are starting to go to the U.S. for jobs as well, leaving the children with their grandmothers.

The cement team (Bob, Tim, Renee) poured their fourth floor today. The homeowners were Secondina and Deanna. He was the father of the homeowner, Rafael, from Wednesday. Secondina is 77, and Deanna is 19. Secondina has 70 grandkids that all live in the San Pedro Sula area. They are developing good relationships with lots of families and children of the Santa Anna area.

For the team, Hannah
