We made a quick stop at Harvard University before heading to our partner church. We are feeling smarter already!

We were busy cleaning at St. Andrews, our partner church this afternoon. We swept, mopped, organized, raked, and so much more!

We spent our morning doing yard work for our host church, Nueva Vida. We are so blessed to give back to this church that opened their doors and hearts to us!

Time to organize!
We couldn't stay away! We truly loved our time last night so much that we had to come back.
Today we are organizing the clothes into different bins to send them to another department to be organized by size.
