Back from Guatemala
Posted 06-26-2008 at 11:44:26 AM by ritaillinois
I'm ready to go back to Guatemala any time! There are SO many children who just need someone to see that they are special and to help them along life's journey. There are many people doing wonderful things to help....orphanages, special schools, youth homes. But the need is still ENORMOUS. We were to go to the Guatemala City Dump, but there was a mud slide (due to the heavy rains...this is the 6 month rainy season), it wasn't safe, or appropriate for us to go. Many lost their lives. We did go to the outskirts to a sewing "school" (10X20' room) for the women so they could earn money in a good way.
