Organized Chaos in Action

Some from Starkville went to visit the children at Para Los Ninos today. This is a place that many people from there have close ties to. One said they were surprised that so many of the children remembered them and that they asked about others from Starkville several years ago.
One group went to Los Pinos to build a house and the site they built on was very challenging with a lot of rock to bust through. They perservered and will finish the house tomorrow.
More evangalizm was going on at Los Pinos and another soul was added to the church.
A large group went to do a clothing give away in the Valley... we had never done a give away there and they did not have a church building to work out of so we set up on the soccer field. The bus was on one side and we set up the boxes around and managed the group and gave away to about 200 people. This was a place where most of the children did not have shoes and they were really grateful for the shoes. This is a place where 200 more pairs of shoes would have been appreciated. More people were coming down the hill and we had given all of the stuff we had brought. The people also got Bibles and the people in line who didn't get any clothing still got a Bible and they were very happy. Some of the older children got Bibles too and they seemed very excited.
