Friday update from Puebla

Greetings Brothers and Sisters,

The first thing we need to share today is not good news. Yesteday we learned that a 9 year old boy named Sergio del Villar has aparently run away from Alto Refugio and is literally on the streets of Puebla. Sergio is a special boy and is sorely missed. We need the membership of NorthWood to come together in prayer to console Octavio and Peri and for the safe return of this young boy to safety.

On a brighter note, our work at the high schoool was completed. There is still much to do but the classrooms all have new lighting, new paint, new shelving, and several other amenities. The teachers and staff seem to be pleased with our work.

Today we are going to the orphanage for a couple of hours not to work, but to play with the children. Then were are going to downtown Puebla to enjoy the culture and do some shopping.

We will be home tomorrow night.

Your friends,

Team Alto
