Vacation Week

July 28th is Peru's Independence Day so the schools were closed and the kids had the week off.  These are some pictures of a few things they did this week.

On Sunday, some of the kids helped Padre Juan Carlos with his sermon by holding up portions of the Lord's Prayer.  From left to right: Juan Diego, Marta, Rosa, Tamara and Padre Juan Carols.

Jimena and Wilber (on the far right) showed off their work from Sunday School class.

On Monday, Padre Daniel took the kids (and me) to a nice restaurant called Fong Mey.  The kids requested Chifa which is a blend of Chinese food and Peruvian food.

Once the food arrived, everyone dug in.

Hermelinda helps herself to the rice while Isela waits her turn.

Our hosts: Padre Daniel, his wife Vique, Deacon Victor and Senor Pedro, the director of Sagrada Familia.

Afterward, they got to look at the fish tank in the lobby of the restaurant.

On Wednesday, thanks to a special donation, the kids got to go see a movie.  We saw "Despicable Me 2".

Also waiting patiently, Marta, Katiuska and Waldir.

The boys really liked the escalator.

Afterwards, thumbs up for great movie!
