Happy Tuesday to you!

It's true, there's never really a dull moment at the Bible Home. This Sunday we had a condensed version of AWANA since it was a special Family Bonding day. It was a lot like the one we had in February, with all the kids, house families, biological families/guardians, plus Roblealto staff and volunteers all playing together. Thank God our days of heavy rain from Sandy were over! After playing volleyball, 3-legged soccer, kickball (with a buddy I wasn't allowed to let go of!), and other bonding activities, we headed up to the houses to eat and keep sharing. The Porvenir house chose me to hang out with them. I had a great time! The house parents and all the kids in the house just came in July, so it was a perfect opportunity to get to know them all better! As the afternoon came to a close, the children performed "Trading My Sorrow" for their parents, and then we went outside under a tree to give thanks to God together. I thought we'd all just go around the circle and say something we were thankful for, but everyone did it more like a prayer. It was a really sweet moment. I'm so thankful for Roblealto, the opportunity to serve the children and families at the Bible Home, and for everything God is doing in them! Thank you for making this possible!
I challenge us all do some family bonding this week!
God's peace and joy be with you,
Carrie
