First full week!

My name is Carrie..i arrived in cochabamba last wednesday july 18 to work as an intern for the timmers. so far my time here as been an adventure! when i first arrived we pretty much went straight to the jungle to work with the interns and team that were already there. that thursday we concreted the bottom floor of one of the orphanages being built. everyone worked very hard all day and i didn´t hear one person complain which is truly amazing! we came back from the jungle on friday. saturday we went to mt. tunari and the team did a vbs with the san miguel village. it was so beautiful out there and the people seemed really interested in what everyone had to say. it was a very surreal moment to have some one from the team speak in english then mallory timmer translate to spanish and then a man there translate that to ketchua? that afternoon we went to the baby washing on the town square. other stuff that i have been blessed to be part of is going to both of the orphanages that are up and going and to the center an afternoon program for children. i can really see the Lord working in the lives of not only the bolivians but everyone who comes here to serve Him. the timmers have such a heart for the children of bolivia and it has been so encouraging to me to see their obedience to what the Lord has called them to!
