Pastor Jose of the Candelaria village has a daughter that has been studying English in Leon has also been a great help to all of us. She helps with names of the children at the churchsite as well as speaking to them for us. She is 22 and married to Tommy who is 19. We did not meet her until our 3rd day here (2nd in the villages), but she has been great. Her mother is head of Sunday school in the La Isla community. She and both her parents are great blessings to the people in the poorest parts of the country.
- She led Big Dad, Dan, and Teresa through the homes of Candelaria village people.
- She rode with us to La Isla village where her mother runs Sunday school.
- She went with all of us to lunch one day.
- Dan had her go with him and her father, Pastor Jose, to get cement and pipe to make the volleyball poles.
- She and Diego have become very close friends because they are close in age and she has served primarily as his translator, with the youth boys and even the young kids.
We will all miss her very much, but she like our other interpreters says she will keep up with us via email!
