Today was a great day, it honestly felt like a million degrees, I ate some great food, and spent a lot of time holding babies,(out host family has three under the age of four). Everything is brand new here, even though there are lots of problems there seems to be so much hope. This morning my first interaction with the girls at the well was hearing them sing songs to God, Im glad I had this experience or the ones to follow will be to much. Today we also visited one of the many red light districts in the afternoon, reading the names of the signs alone made me feel sick, we also went to a whole strip of the city for gay prostitution and bars are located. Everything I have read about is real, But honestly Gods power is also more real then I have felt in a long time, he completely has changed so of the girls, im encouraged, I taught some of the girls how to do a cannon ball into the water and gave them some ring pops I brought with me.
