I am so grateful for what God has done and is continuing to do here in Nicaragua. I am also grateful to be able to be here serving with so many awesome people. I am less grateful for the fact that this blog does not have spellcheck... so if your reading this (and I am assuming you are) please bear with me. I actuallly do not have a lot to say but I will tell you a little about what has been going on here. Basically everyone has been working really hard.... so hard in fact that even my father, Senor Bill Camenisch said that he was very proud of everyone here. I am also very proud to be associated with the rest of the personas that are on this trip. It is not an everyday occurence that you find people willing to lay down there lives to serve someone when they know they will receive nothing in return. Actually that is only partially true because the people that I get to see everyday here in Nicaragua are doing just that. Serving without complaining, without expecting a reward, and most importantly serving with a desire to please the Lord in everything they do.  It is amazing how much work can get done with 15 to 20 people whose sole desire is to forget about their own personal desires and to work with all their might for the Lord. I am so amazed and am definetely surprised by how much work we got done. For those of you interested in the work we have done. We have made a lot of progress on a building that has been here for a long time but was still very unfiinished. We have put up multiple walls as well as laying a concrete floor over the surface area of the building. We have also been working in a ditch, laying concrete along the sides and bottom to help solve erosion problems here at the Orphanage. I am so thankful to the Lord for so many things. He is so good and I am grateful to be apart of what he is doing here in Nicaragua. Well I must go. I need to go on adventures with Jefe mi amigo y hermano. Serve someone, not only today but everyday.
