three different groups came today...it was great!
ventana, an outreach similar to mexico outreach, brought a spring break team to play with the kids and work on the boys' new house. they were a lot of fun and the kids were outside playing all morning. i think rainy season is finally over...it was legitimately hot today!
some old friends of the boys stopped by - a family with cute little kids. they stayed and hung out with the boys all afternoon. the boys really enjoyed talking with them.
some friends of ron (the grandpa who comes at least once a week, usually twice, to spend time with the kids in the big house) brought an amazing blessing by today. tons of food and diapers (we had NO smalls...), a fridge (praise God!), and in addition to food staples like rice and beans, they brought fruit. FRUIT! we get a lot of veggies donated, but i haven't seen a big fruit donation come through yet. bananas, apples, oranges...beautiful! the kids were so excited. who wouldn't be excited? fresh fruit!

i got to talk to john orozco this afternoon, the lead singer of emissary band (www.emissaryband.com). their music is on the radio in sacramento and he has a radio interview this week, so we talked a bit about what's going on here and how people can help. it was great to catch up with him and awesome that even more people will be hearing about gabriel house!
