First week plus an amoeba...

So I am now just over half through my first outreach. The first week went great. Tuesday was full of orientations for the students and then wednesday, thursday and friday we were at our sites. The construction site is a very flexible one though. Wednesday we were collecting very large rocks all to help support one of the roads that gets washed out when it rains. Thursday I was the site leader because Jose had to be in town all day long. We were gardeners that day. We mowed the lawns at 2 of the other ministry sites. Friday we were hauling away broken up concrete from one of the local churches as well as a load of trash for them. Saturday was the excursion day. We took all 52 students to one of the water falls in the area that has a pretty nice beach area. That was fun. I am thinking this is where I got the amoeba. I most likely accidentally swallowed some river water. Saturday evening we took the students into town for shopping and dinner. Sunday was church in the morning and then we took the students up on a hilltop to pray over the city. Monday morning is when I got sick. I was in bed all day. Not fun at all. Then today Tuesday I am starting to feel better but still pretty weak. I am on some pretty strong meds to kill off the amoeba. Hopefully I will be able to go back to work tomorrow. 

Well thats all for now.
