The mission volunteer coordinator, Lauren and Julio gave us a tour of the mission projects. We visited the women's center, the hospital and the coffee center. It is great for those of us that have returned many times to San Lucas to see progress at the women's center...and also women using the center! The hospital also had a fresh coat of paint and looked really great. Surgeons visited last month, and performed over 80 surgeries a week while they were here.
After dinner we watched a video about Father Stan Rother, who was a priest in the neighboring town of Santiago. Rother was murdered in 1981 by a death squad. Today we will visit the site where he was killed.
Yesterday was very rainy, the Salem crew took a walk down to the lake in the rain. Today is sunny, which is great! Today is Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos). We are off to the cemetery soon for worship, then it's time for the kite festival!
