Juana Abramo's Trip Summary


The airplane ride was smooth and by God's guidance we got to El Salvador safely. When we got to the city of Barrios the next morning, we visited the church in the Pajiqua area where we met a lot of the local people. The men and women sat separately. Monday we left for work and when we got there some native volunteers were already busy building foundations for new homes. We went to work digging the ground level to a floor area which we did for two days. The next day we visited school children during their recess time period. I spoke with a young girl who told me she walks back and forth to school which is in a rural area. We then delivered groceries to homes. We went to the church in Pajiqua which is where the school is located. We then went to the school dedication where Pastor Kastens gave a message which was translated by Juan. The entire community participated in the ceremony. Thursday we finished our work, then went to the beach and shopping on Friday. Saturday we had a safe trip home and arrived at CrossWay Christian Church at 11:00 PM.
