Today the
six of us ran Distribution Number 5 like a well-oiled machine. We were
thrilled when we pulled up to Vision Ahora Church in Managua to see that
the Rotary Club of Managua
had arranged for us to use the entire church site for the day. It was
ideal for our purposes: a huge, enclosed space with a roof over it so
that none of the children was in the sun, a secure corner in which to
stack the bedkits and, best of all, a stage. This
was the site we have been waiting for!
Thanks to
the Matching Funds Program at Macgregor Meat & Seafood Ltd. of
Toronto, we have four photographs of one hundred children to take during
this trip. So far none of our locations
had been able to hold that many kids at one time. But here we had a
stage with banks of steps in front of it so that we could line up the
children in tiers and get all one hundred into each shot. As only 387
children arrived to the site to receive their bedkits,
we were unable to get all four photos, but three out of four isn't bad.
Team Nicaragua
