Chile

I'm back! I just spent 10 days in Chile on a life changing connections trip with my church. I don't even know where to start, there is so much goodness and God moved in such mighty ways with the people of Valpraiso. We took a red eye flight that landed in Santiago in the morning and we hit the ground running as far as work went. There is a coastal town about 3 hours north of us that was devastated by fire and wiped out many homes. Our purpose for the first half of the trip was to love on 2 families and help them rebuild while building relationships with the locals. I wasn't sure what to expect at the job site, I actually thought it was a staging area when we arrived or maybe temporary housing. This part of Valpraiso is very poor and the construction of homes is basically made up of plywood, corrugated tin roofs and styrofoam for insulation. Way different than in the US.
