CCV team with the kids in San Marcos
This one is of the dental hygiene skit; with Capitana Pasta de Dientes and Capitana Cepillo de Dientes. The skit was funny and educational, teaching the kids about the importance of brushing their teeth daily. Afterwards nearly 100 toothbrushes and toothpaste was given out. The kids loved it. We just hope they start brushing their teeth!
Karen from the team was spending time with Anita, a little girl with Down's Syndrome from Hogar Amantani, the orphanage. Anita was crying for seemingly no reason. But soon after, she fell fast asleep on the ground using the cement as her pillow. Sweet girl.
The team had just arrived back from a long train and bus ride from Machu Picchu that same morning. Hardly even getting breakfast, they went off to Hogar Amantani to spend the morning with the kids in the park playing sports. They brought soccer, basket and volleyballs. They also did relays and other fun games. The team showed their dedication to God by pulling together all their energy to play with the children in the hot morning sun even though they were tired and sore from all the hiking they had done in the days prior. They were a huge blessing to the orphanage and I'm sure we'll do something like this in the future too.
