New Mural
Cristian, a young artist from Centro Biblico Church in Trujillo, donated his time and talents to painting our new outside wall near the street. It's an important mural, as it promotes the albergue and also helps direct the public to our building. Joel and I were invited to help him paint some of the details, along with a few other visitors, workers and children. Cristian even included a charactature of Vickie Miller reading a book with some of the children. MUCHAS GRACIAS, CRISTIAN!
