Vida Nueva

We visited the Vida Nueva orphanage this afternoon with the Hammercreek youth.


This orphanage is home to approximately 60 children. Pictured is the school where 400 children attend, children from the home as well as the surrounding community.


Our group provided a craft activity for the younger children. We took their pictures and then printed the photos on our new printer while the children decorated a foam picture frame. Julie Boll helped the children.


Tony didn't get his picture taken but enjoyed decorating a piece of foam.



Charlie took along his famous water rocket and, as always, it was a huge hit with the boys!



And, of course, there was a soccer game between the Americans and the Guatemalans. A first -the Gringos won! Hammercreek has got some good soccer players. Ben was really pleased that he chose to play on the winning team. Nick, unfortunately, played as a Guatemalteco today.
