Right after Easter/ Holy Week, we welcomed our 10th team of the year, Living Hope Baptist Church. This team has been a part of the Abraham Project for 12+ years. They send a team down every year, and we have been so fortunate to be a small part of their support in leading their teams for the past two years. We are so thankful that God allowed us to cross paths. They are a serving team and really know how to pour into all of us here at the Abraham Project.
Here is a little sneak peek at their awesome week with us!

| The children from the Children's Homes got to have their annual Egg Hunt! |
 |
| The kids love to take part in this American culture activity! |
The team got to dig trenches around 2 of the 3 houses. They were laying a barrier to protect the houses from termites. Digging in the dry, dry, DRY ground in DRY season=LOTS OF WORK!!

Overall, we had a great week with the team from Living Hope. We are always so excited to get to see returning faces--and to get to meet to people as well! We are so thankful for the long time relationship and to just be a small part in the partnership!
See you again, next year, LIVING HOPE!!!!
