We have been working for a while now with Marvin’s family, and through Bethel Ministries Dick has been able to find a sponsor to help pay for the expenses of schooling for the three older boys in the family. One of the things we like to do with our sponsored kids is to keep in regular contact with them, and especially encourage them to study and get good grades. It is such fun to reward them for their success.
This time, we decided that we would take the kids swimming at our hotel. They allow outside guests to swim for only a couple of dollars a piece, and the kids seem to love it. Besides, they usually get a lunch with us out of the deal, too.
We had a great time with the boys, and Fernando, who had accompanied us on this trip. Even our friend Dr. Jose came to visit with this family.
Was our outing a success? I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves!
The water slides were a big hit!
Fernando showed them how it’s done. . .
And the boys tried it out—with the security of Dick waiting for them at the end of the slide.
The “surf board” was also a favorite, and the all had to give it a whirl.
Even Dr. Jose’s son joined in the fun, under Fernando’s watchful eye.
