writing to thank you for your donations to the “Earthquake Appeal” by Life in
Abundance (Ecuador) Trust (LIAT) on behalf of the victims of the 2016
earthquake in Ecuador. The earthquake caused great devastation and many
hundreds of people lost their lives. There is now some returning to normality,
but it will take years to rebuild the housing stock and much longer to rebuild
lives devastated by the loss of dear ones.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

We bought rice,
pasta, dried milk, pulses, sugar, oil, tins of fish and other essentials and
packed them into bags. These were designed to last a family for a week. They
were distributed to refugees living around the earthquake zone. The area
covered was around Pedernales, a coastal town which took the brunt of the
quake. We spent around $1000 on these provisions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

charity is not registered as a school, </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">the education side has had to be reinvented as
a “Skills for Life Programme”, in order to comply with current Ecuadorian law.
I was keen to see how the actual workings of the ministry had changed as a
result of this re naming and restructuring. There were four classes, teaching
children with disabilities from the ages of four to twenty in two cycles, with
four teachers, four assistants, a speech therapist and an art teacher. It was
great seeing the children show off their skills in the end of year closure
ceremony at the end of February.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">With great
regret I had to announce to the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Director,
Luzcelli</b>, and the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">President, Danny
Espinoza,</b> that we could no longer fund the Skills for Life Programme at the
same level, as Brexit and the fall of the pound seriously affected our finances
here in the UK. Such a shame as the forty plus children and adolescents showed
that they were gaining skills and developing self-esteem and a sense of purpose
in their lives.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-no-proof: yes;"> </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">However,
all was and is not lost. Danny Espinoza and <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">William Solórzano, co-founder</b>, committed to do everything possible
to fundraise for the charity, beginning different initiatives to help make the
education side self-funding. There are plans to cultivate yucca, a root
vegetable often eaten with barbecues. There are also plans to use a substance
called abaca, a bi product of another plant, and recycle it to profitable
purpose. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Another
outcome of the changes in funding was that there was a general restructuring of
the education side of the charity’s work, and in the process <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Sharon Wilcox, from CMS</b>, decided to
move on, and is now, sadly, no longer working with Vida en Abundancia. We are
grateful for her pioneering work with adolescents, which we hope can continue
and develop.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

The charity works in Santo Domingo’s outlying
areas with groups of women who receive handicraft and dressmaking classes. The
underlying aim is to identify and help those suffering from, or at risk of
Domestic Abuse(DA). It is estimated that 70% of women in Ecuador experience DA
at some time in their lives.<a href="applewebdata://EA57031F-0340-4566-9ADD-0CE34DFDA971#_edn1" name="_ednref1" style="mso-endnote-id: edn1;" title=""><span class="MsoEndnoteReference"><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><span class="MsoEndnoteReference"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%;">[i]</span></span></span></span></a><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Blanca and Rodrigo</b> pour God’s love into
these women. Many become Christians; they are able to sell the goods they have
learnt to make and construct a better future for themselves and their children.
When I visited they were working in two districts, and the women showed great
commitment to the programme, which always includes a Bible reflexion. Together
with larger church conferences that Luzcelli undertakes, we estimate that we
reach over 500 women a year. It was great to see how Blanca and Rodrigo also
engage with the children in the areas they work in, and we had the privilege of
giving out Bible Study certificates and Samaritan’s purse boxes to over 100
children.</div>

One of my jobs was to visit the sight of last year’s earthquake,
Pedernales, and to see how the money raised by LIAT [Life in Abundance (Ecuador)Trust]
in the UK had been spent. By early March I was joined by <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Heather Lucy,</b> a new member of the Board of Trustees in the UK and
long -standing friend. With <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Katy Griggs,
Head of Latin Link Ecuador and our Administrator</b>, and William, we drove to
the sights of the earthquake. We visited a house in Pedernales which we had
helped finance. It was moving to see the happiness on the faces of the family who
had lost their home, and were now rebuilding their lives, reopening their
business and moving forward. Lamentably, although the government has built a
few houses, general progress of rebuilding is slow</div>

<span style="color: #454545;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We are still experiencing aftershocks
and the death toll has obviously risen. There are teams of volunteer youths
going to help extricate bodies from Pedernales. The smell is terrible. Some
people who have been brought out alive have lost limbs</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #454545;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
<br />
We will make sure donations are used to help victims of this earthquake.<br />
The First Baptist Church in Santo Domingo de Los Tsachilas (La Primera Iglesia
Bautista ) is a centre for receiving aid which we will distribute to areas not
in the headlines, smaller communities, where the main aid agencies are not
working.<br /><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #454545;">These are in the province of Manabi, namely:<br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #222222;"><u>This is a list of the goods needed</u></span><span style="color: #454545;"><br />
<br />
Alcohol<br />
Antibiotics<br />
Saline solution<br />
Non perishable foodstuffs<br />
Items for personal hygiene, such as soap<br />
Toothbrushes and toothpaste<br />
Toilet paper<br />
Plastic cups<br />
Spoons<br />
Disposable plates<br />
Mattresses<br />
Blankets<br />
Cooking facilities<br />
WATER<br />
<br />
One of the needs is for cooks to go and prepare food for the relief teams, who
are working very hard, and there is no one to give them a meal.<br />
<br />
I have been quite ill, with a sudden attack of labyrinthitis, with the most
horrible nausea and vertigo, so I could not move. The pastors were called to
pray for me and immediately I knew something in the spiritual had been broken.
I was able to open my eyes without the room spinning and I am making a steady
recovery. I am hoping to be able to go and interpret for some Americans who are
coming as a rescue team.<br />
<br />Many thanks in advance<br />
<br />
All blessings<br /><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;">Some 413 people have died and over 2500 have been injured. </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;">The search for survivors continues.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Many charities have begun delivering aid to the affected areas.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Please continue to pray. </span></span><br />

In fact as we are both old enough it would have been easier to book by Saga!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">Way back in November -ish time Andrew found a pub that did B& B near CMS HQ in Oxford who assured us they would look after the dog, take her for a walk several times a day etc etc. then at the beginning of May we realised we hadn't actually booked for the conference & the cut off date was the end of April, anyway Jo was able to squeeze us in & at the same time Andrew rang the pub again who again assured us that the dog could be with their dogs & even told Andrew the room we would be in but no everything was fine and they didn't need a deposit. It all sounded too good to be true - it was!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">We arrived in plenty of time to get the dog settled in, about <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1753635562" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">4 pm</span></span>, but the girl at the bar said ' O are you the people with the dog, we got doublebooked so we have rebooked you' and muttered something about them being booked up by Late Rooms bookings. So she proceeded to say we had been rebooked at a pub in the next village. As it was a bit of a complicated journey a customer said he'd show us the way. At the pub they said they had had no bookings from this place, were booked up & they didn't take dogs anyway, so they suggested somewhere else. When we got arrived there was the sweetest girl at reception who got special permission for us to have a dog there but as it was quite expensive we didn't know what to do. By that time the meal at the conference was about to start so we went to CMS. Jo & Henry gave us such a lovely welcome & said the dog could come to the conference if that would help, so we booked up the Hotel & stayed, otherwise we would have had to come home!!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">As it was the conference was excellent as usual, we all loved the Latin food, including Leila, who was very well behaved </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">Below is a photo of the 3types of paella which was <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1753635563" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Saturday</span></span> nights meal & made outside under a gazebo on BBQs</span><br />

<br />The other main speaker was Alf Cooper who came to fame because he was the chaplain involved in rescuing the miners in the disaster in Chile a few years ago. His son & daughter in law, presently at St Johns Theological College in Nottingham, led the worship and Andrew accompanied them on the piano. He did very well playing songs he'd never played before by ear.<br />Alf is an absolutely inspiring speaker & personality. It was he who started off the <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1753635565" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Saturday</span></span> night so I felt a bit daunted as he was a hard act to follow, but there were a few others before me. I prayed hard! Andrew had put together a power point from Jills, Jennifer's & Blancas pictures which seemed to go down quite well. The picture of Ruth's new baby at the onset training went down well & also the fact that it is obvious there are a lot of people being helped in the women's work. Several people came up to me to thank me afterwards.<br /><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1753635566" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Sunday</span></span> was our day of making connections -like Ollie; the wife of the man who was the curate at the church I was at in Sheffield as a student; a couple whose son who I know, is the deputy head of our local special school 5 minutes walk from home; the Latin link rep; etc etc<br />Also it turned out that the Brazilian receptionist at the hotel was a Christian & goes to a Brazilian church in Oxford, so we gave her some of the prayer letters about missionaries in Brazil,& just before we left we were able to share our faith with a young man staying there so that was good.<br />Below a final picture of something one would expect to see possibly in Ecuador but probably not in the UK-a car & motorbike inside a van which was on a rescue vehicle ! </div>

It was a very good conference-we are always impressed by the quality of people at these conferences ( I am sure that's not just because there were 8 bishops there). Look out for The name Marcus Throup a missionary in Brazil who did the Bible studies-excellent. And of course it was the first CMS weekend conference Leila has attended and at 16 months she did very well indeed. It may well be the first time a dog has attended a CMS conference- I leave CMS to work out if that is so!</div>

I have the
enormous privilege of being considered” family” here and so was asked to the
Baptist Church Deacons’ meeting on Saturday. It was a beautiful setting, sitting on a terrace
overlooking the town, with God’s presence there. After the meeting we visited some sick folk
and ended the morning with a great dish of chicken and rice, with chips. Wonderful.
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Monday May 1<sup>st</sup> was Día del Niño,
Day of the Child, and the whole school had a trip to the park. Pastor Rodrigo
led everyone in some Christian choruses and a Bible story. Then our PE
teacher got us doing dance sequences, they call it Bailaterapia; thoroughly
enjoyed by staff and pupils alike. A special day like this has to include
plenty of food, and large quantities of chicken and rice, bread, cake and cola
were consumed. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We have been filming
the work of the charity, and on Thursday it was the school’s turn. Everyone
looked especially scrubbed up for the occasion; the teachers in their new
orange tea shirts, the children in their clean white ones. One of the teachers
was quite ill, but had come in for the filming. What you call a star.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Freedom in Christ
course is in its fourth week, and the group is beginning to participate more
freely, something not really in the culture here. Well, someone else wants to
join, which is encouraging. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But for me the high
spot of the week is that all the children in our top class can now read simple stories
of varying lengths. I have been saying for ages that our children can read, and
now I have it on film to prove it. If
you could have seen the children’s faces when I congratulated them: it was something
truly beautiful to behold.<o:p></o:p></div>

One of our younger children has died following respiratory problems. We visited the hospital where he was on a life support machine. It is extremely sad when a much loved child dies so young.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">Our new worker for the Skills for Life project has had major surgery. We visited her yesterday and prayed with her. She is beginning to make a recovery. Another member of staff has a mosquito related illness.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">On a brighter note we now have over thirty children in our classes. Gradually things are coming together; the electric fans, the clocks, the tables and cupboards which make up the furniture of a classroom. The P.E. classes are up and running and the children have adapted to the new school routine. I spend some of each day visiting the classes and making sure everything is going smoothly.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">I keep running into folk I have worked with or have been associated with over the years here. It is a great delight for me to see them again.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">Great fun was had at the Mothers Day event. In teams you had to answer questions like"how many injections does a child receive by the age of six?" Not so easy if you don't happen to have the care of an ecuadorian infant, but my team was quite with it and although I didn't know any of the answers to the questions, we managed to win.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">The Freedom in Christ course is going well.

This week we have got
into a steady rhythm of working in the school in the mornings, still lots to
sort out with many adjustments, but we have a better idea of the number of
children who will attend this year.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We are just starting
the planning process for another film about the charity, which will be produced
in Spanish and in English; a bit more complicated now, with things going on in
different locations. I have to write the text…….<o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
We started the”
Freedom in Christ” course with a small group of students and some leaders.
There has been very positive feedback on this. I also gave a talk to the Ladies
Group, and another to the Elderly People’s Group. They have saved some money
and bought some massage equipment which was fun to try out.</div>

We started the school year in earnest. The working day starts at 7.30; the children arrive at 8.00 and leave at 12.00, but the teachers stay on till 1.00. The last hour is used for planning and meetings. We all seem to be coping with that very well. Maria and Natty's classes filled up quickly and the other two getting a slow but steady stream of children. The whole process of educating begins again. Some teething problems over the use of the communal spaces in the school, but we have negotiated successfully- well, let's hope so.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">We had a smaller group for the English fellowship this week as one of the group had to go to hospital, but fortunately it was not too serious. A common cure here is a saline drip and chicken broth; I think it works well no matter what the age of the patient.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" />

Our president Danny stepped up to give the opening talk. He spoke about our being a Christian organization and encouraged everyone to pray every day. He had bought a New Testament for each parent.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">Here, when someone passes away, the body is accompanied till burial.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">Katy, Sharon and I picked up some flowers in bright oranges and pinks to take to the wake. We passed a grey clad military brass band playing brightly for Mothers Day. The different colors and tones of celebrations of life and death all in one very hot afternoon seemed to typify this town, this culture- gaiety and tragedy in a single breath.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">Over 100 people accompanied the main mourners till </span><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1791299211" style="background-color: white; border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">midnight</span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">. Some of our parents and children made an appearance. Sadly, three of Bertha's four children were unable to attend. They live in Europe and could not get flights. Different pastors spoke in turn about the Christian hope in the afterlife and ......we sang songs. One I really like has the words" mas alla del sol, mas alla del sol, mi hogar, oh Jehova es mas alla del sol", which, translated is"beyond the sun , beyond than the sun, oh Lord, our home is beyond the sun"</span><br />

It is May 1st, and people are unhappy about taxes and prices going up. Sound familiar?</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">This week was the last before classes start and the teachers have been busy with last minute planning. We have a new teacher , Gina , who will take the older children and prepare those who are able for reinsertion into the regular school system. We will have three classes for children with Moderate Learning Difficulties and one for children with Autism. As far as we know , it is the only one in this town of half a million people. We continue to be able to speak weekly on the radio, informing people of the services the charity offers .</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">I visited El Paraiso, where Blanca and Rodrigo have another handicrafts class. The women had brought their work to show me, and there was a "brindis", which meant coca cola , biscuits and a tuna fish sauce. You can't help but be impressed by the enthusiasm of the women, and the quality of the goods they are turning out.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">There is now a shelter on our piece of land. When we arrived we were met by a pack of wolf like dogs, which turned out to be quite amicable- Ernesto ' s dogs with four of their young. Phew......we just need to put in the loos and then it will be all systems go- young peoples project, women's ministry, and Blanca and Rodrigo want to start a Christian outreach there.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">We were asked to visit a young man paralyzed after a motor bike accident. He was very despondent when we arrived. We spoke to him about The Lord and managed to put a small rehabilitation plan in place. He is called Jaime if you would like to pray for him.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">I started a house group for English speakers this week, which I hope will bless those who have little opportunity to express themselves in their mother tongue during the rest of the week.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" />

Many people need healing from past traumas. The church welcomes all; we now have Cubans and Columbians with the distinctive linguistic lilts and rhythms they bring to the Spanish Language. It is a privilege to be included in this ministry.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">We have running water again, but it only comes out cold. "Grateful for small mercies" is the attitude to embrace.</span><br />

I found myself in the market in Santo Domingo this week and rediscovered the vibrancy and color of this country town , which, combined with the heat and the noise, both invigorates and exhausts.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">I visited the work in Juan Eulogio . Blanca and Rodrigo are teaching a group of women sewing skills on electric Singer sewing machines which must date from before the Second World War , but they work wonderfully.</span><br />

To my surprise six turned up, but it was good fun. We , the teachers and I, got invited to a farm high in the hills near Allurinquin, a town just outside Santo Domingo. We got shown the sugar cane press which looks as if it was manufactured during the industrial revolution. It stands at an uppermost point on the hill overlooking hundreds of miles of semi tropical forest. The family is almost self sufficient in all goods needed to sustain life. The farmer showed us snakes preserved in alcohol which apparently prevent cancer. He gets them ,well, before they get him. The eighty five year old grandmother, well able to carry 10 lb. of lemons ,seemed to be a living proof of the beneficial effects of the grog, but we declined tasting it. We returned loaded with lemons, oranges, zapallo and noni. I narrowly escaped being bitten by an enraged dog, and we laughed till our sides ached.</span><br />

My hope, as always, was that all suitcases would appear on the carousel.The first one did. Still waiting expectantly at the carousel I heard this message on the loudspeaker "can Ball Jill come to the lost baggage desk. "Sure enough one case had been left in London , but not to worry, they would collect it from the plane when it arrived and send it on to Santo Domingo. Not a big deal apparently.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">To my utter delight and not to say surprise, the company were true to their word and I collected the case on Wednesday from a package sending office in Santo Domingo. This has not always been my experience with mislaid baggage, so I felt especially favored and blessed</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">Altogether I have had a very good week, meeting up with dear folk I have not seen in seven months. I was asked to speak to the ladies in a barrio with Blanca and Rodrigo ,and then asked to speak at the monthly meeting for retired people. Both events were well attended and people were very kind</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">I was given a lovely reception party by William and some friends with an enormous bouquet in the shape of a dog.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;">Temperatures in the 40s, a bit different to Leigh on Sea. To complete the week the water pump broke, so washing in cold water out of a bucket, but in this climate, that is no hardship."</span><br />

project for school leavers & adults with learning disabilities, in Santo
Domingo. At present there is very little for
children, leaving the Foundation’s school, to engage in (unless there is
a family business, and they are able to help with that). There is very little
available for them throughout Ecuador. A fact not lost on Jill and Sharon. Last
year Sharon wrote a manual explaining how the school leavers could be trained,
occupied and possibly employed, through the development of Life Skills. She ran
a pilot scheme, with the older school children, so that the Directors could see
what a project might look like.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Jennifer and her husband recently visited the school in Ecuador.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You can read the full article on pages 6-8 of the April Link magazine by clicking<a href="http://stmichaelsbtree.co.uk/website/index.php?option=com_docman&Itemid=18" target="_blank"> here </a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
She summarised her highlights of her visit:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span> </div>
<ul>
<li><span style="text-align: center;">Getting to know the children and the staff... lots of hugging and kissing, and </span>practising saying my name, although one boy insisted on calling me Grandma instead!</li>
<li>Assembly taken by Pastor Rodrigo.</li>
<li>Lovely school environment with interesting displays and information. </li>
<li>Seeing lessons with the theme of Eric Carles’ The Hungry Caterpillar; exciting, interesting and engaging lessons.</li>
<li>Enthusiastic music lessons led by the leader of the Music Group from a local Baptist Church.</li>
<li>PE in the local park, about two minutes walk away from school... a large </li>
<li>accessible green space and children sharing wheelchairs to get there.</li>
<li>Horse riding on Friday morning with added games and fun.</li>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #222222;">My two months, January and
February , in Ecuador went very quickly. I don't think my feet touched the
ground for the whole visit. It was great to meet up with everyone and to see
how the school was getting on. We had a visit from Jennifer Bailey, on our board
of Trustees, and her husband the Rev. Bailey. Jennifer gave a full assessment
of the school, while Steven helped out with a <u>medical</u> <u>mission</u> from
the United States and also took to the pulpit on occasion.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #222222;">Jennifer gave very positive feedback
on the school, while giving us some things to think about and to work on in the
next school year. Sharon Wilcox will be working with the adolescents on Life
Skills, and we have plans to take on another teacher. So it is all go!</span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: transparent;">We have taken on a new Director,
Luzcelli Pamba, who is also the Director of Orphaids, another Christian charity
in the town. She has launched the women's work onto the whole town, with
regular radio slots telling women how to get help if they are being abused. She
has started a Telephone Help Line , so victims of Domestic Violence can get
instant advice. There is also a counseling service. The charity is running
handicraft classes in different locations in the town. We have also taken on
another worker, Maria Agusta, who will be giving conferences to women and
working at town level.</span></span></span></div>

Blanca and Rodrigo have developed so many good relationships with the adults
and children in Laura Flores. Their Homework club is a great support for
children whose parents cannot help them. They are also now working in two other
slum areas where they make a huge impact on these groups of largely neglected
people. So the charity is expanding in all directions.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span></div>
