This blog is specifically written for the mothers, fathers, sisters,
brothers, aunts, uncles, (great) grandpas, (great) grandmas, friends, and
acquaintances of the SHYG students currently on the Bolivia mission trip of
2014. If you do not possess one or more of these titles, then you can stop
reading this and get back to BuzzFeed or Yahoo News or whatever. I mean, unless
you really want to… I guess it could be an interesting read. It is more
legitimate than most BuzzFeed articles after all.
Anyways, I know you’ve all been on the edge of your seats waiting for
the greatly anticipated blog of Dominic Pierri. Don’t worry. Here it is. Let’s
talk about today.
The team woke up earlier than we have ever woken up this morning. We got
out of bed at 6:00 in the morning (a time of day I didn’t know existed) and ate
breakfast at 6:30. Toast, granola, and the most exquisite scrambled eggs
prepared by the great and mighty Dan Westman.
I
guess you could call today “El Día de Los Niños.” We spent the first half of el
día at the work site hanging out and making balloon animals with a huge group
of Compassion International niños. Bolivian babies are beyond adorable. While
that was going on, there was a designated prayer room in the building where the
students sat in solitude praying for major impact on the non-Christian
Bolivians and the families we were serving. Prayers were lifted up for the
doctors and dentists on site as well.
A
lot of other stuff happened, but Linzy told me I don’t have any more time.
Thanks Linzy for leaving people in the dark. Time to go eat steak with the team
and the Bolivian workers we built with. If you want to hear more about what
happened today, check out David’s blog post.
I love you, Mrs. White! I miss you so much!
