Day 6 - Armenia School - Sports Camp + Projects

Image
Another morning here in the jungle of Belize where we are greeted by tropical bird calls and howler monkeys. The heat wave continues, but we are only looking at a high of 92 degrees today. ;) We are heading back to the school right after breakfast for a morning of sports games with the school children. Thank your for your prayers that the kids would have fun and feel loved. More from students... By Cyrus Sid Today we all went over to the Armenia Government School to do our final half day working. We taught the kids some of our sports we play in the United States, such as kickball, frisbee, and American football. It was a frigid 92 degrees out. We taught them our sports for a couple hours until 12. After that we said a very emotional goodbye to the kids and then we started heading back over to Jaguar Creek for lunch. Later, we started to head over to the caves. It was a very short walk and we went into a pretty big cave in the middle of the rainforest. After that we drove over to a wate...

Day 4 - Armenia School - Art & Science Camp + Projects

Here we go! We are off to meet the kids at Armenia School and start our first morning camp, along with construction projects. It’s just below 90 degrees at 8 am. The prayers page has been updated and we appreciate all your support! Student posts... By Olivia Chamness Today we woke up, ate some breakfast, and headed to the Armenia Village School. We began to set up our materials for the art and science rotations. I was in charge of Art 1, where we had supplies for the 3rd and 4th graders to create tissue paper collages, drawings, and had other materials they loved like pompoms and pipe cleaners. Many of the girls used pom poms to make butterflies and caterpillars, and the boys tended to make jungle animals and were excited to write “Messi” with his number 10 and a soccer ball. I was immediately impressed with the kids’ manners. With every request they had for me, whether to ask for materials, or cut a pipe cleaner, they always added “Yes, Miss. Thank you Miss Olivia.” I got a few giggle...

Day 7 - Xunantunich

Image
We are wrapping up our final evening here at beautiful Jaguar Creek. We had a fun and informative day at Xunantunich, ancient Mayan ruins. We have started packing for our 7:15 am departure to head to the airport. As it is Good Friday, Mr. Smithson read from scripture focusing on the 2 men on the cross next to Jesus, encouraging us to be like the robber who respond to Jesus with faith.  We continue to covet your prayers for the team as we come back with change hearts for God. More from students... By Selva Smithson Today we explored the Xunantunich Mayan ruins with the help of friendly tour guides. We learned about the history of the ruins while also getting to climb to the very top. From up there, we were able to see the border between Belize and Guatemala. We learned about human sacrifice, about their ancient games,   and that there was a female leader who was buried with a jaguar and a deer.   After visiting the ruins, we had the opportunity to do some souvenir sho...
