Afternoon Trip
If you read Sean's blog, he mentioned our trip about 30 minutes up the mountain to visit a group of young men having a retreat. We took a few pictures and took a "tour" of the facility that is actually owned by a missionary that lives here in Shell. It was a good time. Here a few pictures that Sean didn't post on his blog about the adventure.
The kitchen. Notice Madison in the arms of one of the young girls that came up with us - I hardly had to worry about Madison with all these ladies anxious to hold her! The woman in white is Marcela, our pastor's wife. The other woman spent the weekend up at the "cabin" to cook for the group of teenage boys. Here they are discussing the need to buy and bring up more food because they underestimated how much young men eat!
This is the meeting room. The night before they had a very special program and lit up the cross you see in the background while playing a beautiful song about the significance of the cross. Sean is talking with our pastor, Angel. Brooklyn was wandering all over the place!
This is the view of the main building. It is a beautiful facility. There is still lots of work being done to it but it is already very nice and has a gorgeous view. There is Brooklyn still wandering around!
This is the group photo of the young men attending the retreat. Not all of the boys are from Shell - some came from other small towns around Ecuador. The "gringo" is Don, the missionary who owns the facility and was helping put on the retreat. Please pray for each of these young men as they finish up a great weekend at Rio Topo.
