Miércoles - Just Say Yes!

Dora welcomes her guests
Traditionally, Wednesday is the toughest day of a week-long mission trip. The excitement of arriving, setting up and getting to work is replaced by the challenges of working in a new environment, living with people you generally see for a couple hours and wondering how you're going to get it all finished by the time you have to pack up and leave! Today was that day.



How do you make it past Wednesday? Just say YES!



Gray & Justin switched from rollers to brushes
Say yes when Father Jim says, "Let's go visit Dora before we start work at the children's center!"



Say yes to Chencho when he decides that brushes are the tool of choice for painting the concrete - NOT the rollers that seem to be working so well!



Pablo starts on his mural


Say yes to Pablo when he presents you with a beautiful drawing he's willing to transfer to a classroom wall.



Say yes to the kid who wants a green crayon, not a blue one!

Now, that's a happy child!




Say yes to the proud artist who wants to post a coloring page on the wall!





Say yes when Glennys suggests one more song!






Moses' burning bush(es)
Rock star Glennys

Say yes to a mission trip opportunity - it will change your life.
