Hello from Calnali we had another great day. We went to the school to watch a school program which was very nice. The people was so kind they made sure we had a seat and with smiles. We left there and with the help of a police truck they took us to one of the Indian village’s and we went to the school and took the gifts we brought to them. They seemed very happy to get the things we gave them. At this school they told us that something had paralyzed a lot of the children at about the age of eight years old. There is so much to understand, that your mind is always working. At night you are thinking about what you have seen that day. When we got back from the village we walked to the grave yard which is such a beautiful place, they take special care of there graveyard. Tomorrow we are going to help another family, a woman and her 6 children. The father is deceased. They live in a put together home of some wood, tin, tarps. The floor is dirt and the baby lay in a hammock in a smoke filled room. If only once in your life you could experience what I have in this week it would change your life forever. Our group has been wonderful; everyone works hard together and respects everyone. We didn’t know each other until we were choose for this trip except for 3 meeting before we left. It seems as if we have known each other all our lives. Since I am the oldest, I want to adopt all of them; this trip has bonded us forever. Judy Borden
