Today was our second day of working. It has been hard work but very enjoyable. Yesterday we poured the cement floors on the latriens. We did all seven floors in one day! Today we worked on finishing the latrines. We finished one and have a little more to go on the other. We are trying to do two per day. Today was the first day of the Bible school. It was the most fun we have had all trip. We sang songs, preformed the skit, played games, and painted nails. We also got to hand out presents to each kid at the Bible school that our own VBS kids had made. The were all very happy. Now for an update on each person:
Suzan is a good mom.
Arlene will get the story out even if she can't breathe.
Joel is a crazy tall person according to Allie and the girls at the Bible club.
Branden wants to find a churro.
Jeff is a hard worker.
Jenny paid all her bills to people she owes.
Stephen wants American food again...soon!
Allie's purpose is to serve and love the kids of Oaxaca.^
Tomorrow we will finish some more latriens and participate in another Bible club. We all can't wait to come home be with family. The weather here is gettign warmer but is not bad. It feels worse in the direct sun while working. We miss you all and will be home soon.
Stephen and Allie

Hello there!
This is Brenda Porter, your MTI Team Coordinator. It's been fun to read your blogs and I'm glad to hear everyone is doing well and enjoying yourselves. You're a bit behind on your blog, since the last posting was on Tuesday and today is Friday. Everyone must be pretty tired... and probably more than ready to come home tomorrow, and eat American food again!
Thank you so much for your service to the least of these. We at MTI really appreciate you and the sacrifices you've each made to go on this trip. Have a wonderful flight home!
Praying for you,
~Brenda
