Day 2: reflections from Amy

I think the thing that touched me the most today was during our prayer walk.  We walked through the neighborhood we were going to serve and met and prayed with the families.  The people were so gracious.  Though their homes were nothing more than cinder block walls, tin roofs and dirt floors, they welcomed us with such warm smiles.  They showed us the water filters that previous teams had installed which they were obviously very proud of.  In one homes there was a 16 year old girl with a two month old baby named Walter hanging in a hammock.  How precious and quiet this family was even though her mother was pregnant with her 12th child.  Our team leader asked the mother what she would like to pray for.  She asked us to pray for her family especially for her unborn child.  It was such an honor to stand with this family and pray with and for them.  The Holy Spirit united us as our translator Nury translated our words as we spoke!  To God be the Glory!
