BASTA YA, the theater production with the Youth Group Fantasicos Amigos, at the Orphanage SOS Aldea Infantil about Violence and Issues that Face Guatemala in Today's World.
Painting and Organizing in the Library, and lots of cleaning!
The Library is now painted, all the bookshelves are cleaned and sparkling like new again, over 1,000 have been categorized in the Dewey Decimal System and we have many more to go, Britannica has donated a full 20 volume encyclopedia which Brian Gouldman will be shipping here asap, Outreach for World Hope has made an enormous contribution of $1,400 to buy a fotocopier and other resources and donated a couch/chair set for a place to sit and read comfortably, Save the Children has donated a Childrens Corner with books, games, carpet and lots of pillows! And of course the HUNDREDS of books you all back home have donated through Amazon and sent in cash donations. The Library is looking fabulous as each day we work getting everything ready. By this Friday I hope to have pictures of more or less the final product! I'd like to have the inaguration the September 10th, but I don't have confirmation on that just yet.
More photos to come, my camera just ran out of battery to upload them :(
Miss you all,
Peace,
Love,
Robin

Congratulations on your inauguration of the library. Your grandmae's dream was to be a librarian--did you know that? Now, her granddaughter has created one! Your connection with the people has made a true difference in their lives and in yours. Thanksgiving will be extra special with your homecoming...it may be getting out of hand.
