Más Perros Techeros





Our outing to Mill was one of our highligts this year. What smiles we saw on the kids!

Roof Dogs (Perros Techeros)





Here are a few pics of the Roof Dog team that come during our "summer vacations" each year. Unlike other teams, this team comes specifically to play with the kids of the Casas. Remember that these children are here at the Casas due to very difficult life experiences in their young lives. Extra love and fun become GOOD memories for them to hold on to.

Cataracts




One of the summer activities of Casa Hogar Sagrada Familia was to visit some local cataracts. Again, thank to Luis for the pics. Note Pedro's attire.

Padre Marvin



One of our blessings here in Arequipa is that Padre Marvin Bowers from the US comes down and teaches seminary classes while P. Ron is out of country. Additionally, P. Marvin visits the Casas and has been teaching a bit of English from the Bible as well. The kids at both houses find Padre M really special. Thanks to Luis for these pics. By the way, you can see Luis's blog for Sagrada Familia here:http://sagradafamiliacasahogar.blogspot.com/
