Tim phones home...

Just got off the phone with Tim. He's having a blast, even is enjoying going to daily mass in the morning. Says the priest is wicked nice, explains the sermon in clear and precise language that the kids understand. Plus there is lots of Christian singing, where the words are put up on a big screen to sing along to. Kids clapping and singing. I haven't heard Tim this talkative in a long time. Lots of good conversation coming from his mouth. I said that next year I should chaperone and go also. His job this week as been to paint a pro-life housing building, a place where pregnant girls can go for counseling with abortion not being the way out. Said all the help are volunteers and they don't have a lot of money.
Tomorrow is his last day on the job. He's met kids from all over the US. I would say this mission trip was a success.

His call was a nice picker upper for Barry!
