Not just a game of soccer

Tuesday Aug. 18
It is hard to believe that another week has past and i am writing this again. This trip has been even better then i have every thought that it would be It is great to see the Dominican more then just a place to relax and forget the problem of the world. Each day that goes by i learn new things about the people of the Dominican. It was crazy to think about all the project and the people that we had a chance from working in a feeding program, a village clinic, working with the street boys you never know what to expect next.

Yesterday was no exception, we had the chance to team up with the hero holiday and run a sports camp in the village of the people that works in the dump. After we got there we where sent off in to the village to find some kids. Walking thought it was hard to believe this was where people where living but as we walk though everyone was excited that we where there and with in 15 minutes we has about 50-60 and we where off to start our sport camp.We played soccer for about a hour in the heat and we could not take it any more we so we just sat a played with the kids. Ever time we have the chance to do this i love it. One little girl stuck out to me she was no more then 2 year old (if she was that old) and we stuck to me like glue every time i would try to put her down she would run after me and jump up in my arms. It is crazy how much a little love can touch a child life.

It is crazy to think that i am heading in to my last week here in the Dominican but i am super excited about what God got in store for us.
