June happenings in our corner of the world

Vanessa and her little guy, John Angelo, who now is almost 2 months old and growing so fast!

Our actors for the silly Zaqueo play performed for the adults

Abram

Buds. Chinito is the boy on the left with the striped shirt


Here are a few photos from my sunday school class. There are usually only 10-15 kids on Sunday mornings... unlike the 70+ kids on Saturdays. It's been so fun watching these children become friends with each other. And especially fun when the girls like the boys and so on. There is this one little boy. His name is Juan Carlos, but we call him Chinito, cause he looks a little Chino (Chinese). It's not rude to have those types of nicknames here, it's endearing. Anyway, Chinito started coming on Saturdays but he didn't have any friends. He is so quiet and reserved. He wanted to play with the kids, but he didn't dare invite himself into their games. Chinito began attending on Sunday mornings too. It was more his style I think (less kids). Now whenever he arrives the other kids they say Oye, Chinito, come sit here by me! (They also call him Fujimori, who is one of the ex-presidents of Peru, who happens to be Japanese). He has many friends now and he has opened up so much.... God's plan for Juan Carlos. Wonderful.
