So today's series of photos come from the second half of last week. As part of the series of lectures on cleanliness that I've been giving at Women at Risk, I decided to construct a hand washing station in the backyard of the building. I got the design idea from a similar device that I saw when I was here last summer. The children came back for lunch right about the time I finished setting it up and seemed to be rather amused with the thing. The only problem I found was that the can was way too small for the amount of people using it. I think that next week I'll go back and install something that holds a lot more water.
Today I visited an organization that is in the early stages of development. One of the staff members here at the YWAM base has a vision of starting a sports ministry program. For the last couple of Sundays I've been visiting the group of kids that he works with, watching their progress. I have to say that I've been rather impressed with this group of kids, when I first saw them all they did was chase after the ball in a large group. During today's practice, I watched them operate as a team, even performing defensive and offensive shifts. Diedone, the staff member pictured at the left of the group photo hopes to one day turn this small project into an NGO.
