Vilma
Chavez visited to invite me to go along
with
the youth to visit the community living
at
the dump in Coban. I changed my plans
and
went along and really had fun.
We
traveled on the back of a pick-up truck.
A
nurse who works at the Coban hospital caught
a
vision to help this community after listening to
a
father talk about the living conditions there.
She
got funds for building a school and a clinic.
She
now has plans to build a home for the elderly.
How
sad to see a young drunk man along
the
road so early in the day.
A
small community nestled on a hillside.
The
students expectantly waited for the story
Vilma
taught about the tree that bears good fruit.
The
youth handed out cups of jello.
They
also served a drink, a taco, and cake.
Posing
for pictures
A
bed spring makes a lovely barrier.
Small
houses in the community
Weighing
trash that was scavenged from the dump.
We are all commanded to
reach out
to the poor among us. Deuteronomy 15:11
