Day six - Manos Abiertas!

Thursday afternoon, after another morning visiting the patients at Damien, we visited Rostro's after-school program in 28 de agosto. The community is an invasion community, meaning it began as a squatter's community and was later recognized by the government. 28 used to be Durán's landfill, so a lot of what we saw driving in was tough. The kids were really fun, though!

Our group says... When I think of Manos, the following comes to mind:
-open and welcoming
-joy, touching
-chaotic
-trying
-my new friend Anthony
-fútbol
-my little friend Bella
-free spirits
-full energy
-wild
-patience needed
-abounding love
