Last day of project work (7/27/19)

Smiles only this big in Lukulu!! Yesterday morning we continued to work on our project work. We headed to the work site and started backfilling. Following this, we went back to the mission ground and loaded up more bricks for the hut. We went and delivered these to the site. Our bags finally arrived, so the girls spent part of the day organizing all of the supplies. We went to the basketball court later in the afternoon and painted nails! We had evening mass, and spent the rest of the night roasting marshmallows with the children! Today we started with morning mass at 7:30am. We then headed back to continue working on the hut. We spent the morning laying almost 6 layers of bricks with some of the locals and boys from the training center! After lunch, the boys went back to finish up, and the girls went to deliver blankets, swaddles and hats to the babies at the hospital. They got to hold 2 of premature babies and the mother’s were so thankful for the gifts we brought! They also spent some time talking to the midwife. We also got to watch the sun set over the amazing Zambezi river! We will have our last bonfire with the youth group tonight. It’s so hard to believe our time Lukulu is coming to an end. We are so grateful for the memories that we are continuing to make and all of the love that is shown to us!
