In Belize the public school system gets two weeks of vacation during the Easter Holiday! It has become a favorite time for me because I get to be with the kids outside of the school setting. Dennis says that we are busier during vacation then we are when we are working in the school!

Although you can't tell it, this is Enil. We always enjoy our time with him. He will be graduating from Standard Six in June and going on to Eden High School. We are at the Blue Hole, which has become one of our favorite places to bring kids because most of them have never been here. It is also easy to get to and doesn't cost very much. And of course, it is quite beautiful! On this day it was quite cold for us. Enil said that he was allergic to the cold and he was shivering most of the time.

I had planned to have two girls bible studies over the two weeks but things went a little differently than I had anticipated. I showed up at at the school to pick up girls and there was no one there. I drove to Wendy's house and she said she was ready. Then we proceeded to drive around Buena Vista for at least 45 minutes collecting girls along the way. Thanks to Wendy we ended up with 11 girls from Standard 4 and 5. They had all been invited but they never know what their families are doing so they have a hard time committing to a date.
