Today brought an end to our time here in San Vincente, but a new beginning for many families. While having sadness in our hearts as we said goodbye to so many new friends, there was an abundance of hope in how God has and will work in their lives.
Today was the key giving ceremony and an impactful day for our team. The relationships made throughout this week were a huge part of what made this day so special as we got to reconnect with our work teams and families that recieved houses. We were given the opportunity to present each of these families with a verse as well as keys to their new homes. God's work was evident through the gratitude and the joy of the people during the ceremony. The bone-crushing hugs, the gifts, and the kind words given to us were a reminder that we have also been blessed this week. It's amazing the trust and connections that we have built, simply after short interviews, a common goal, and even just a few smiles.
We can be assured that going forward, communities will grow closer together and become a safer place for families. We were blessed to see two people accept God into their hearts today, and we hope that this will ignite a spark in their communites. Having said goodbye to the families we met, and our amazing Shelter team, we can now leave knowing that these families are in good hands. God is not finished working here.
Kiara, Chloe and Isabel
