After a long day in Charata, waking up at 8:00 working until midnight we packed our things and headed to the bus station to catch our 2:30 A.M. bus to Resistencia. Most of the team slept the whole way.
We got here July 12th, which happened to be Sam´s Birthday, right off the bat we sang Happy Birthday to her at the Gutiérrez house. What a nice way to start off the day. We got a schedule indicating what we were in charge of for the week. There were so many meetings, it was a bit intimidating to see it all on paper. We were definitely going to be stretched. So the work began...
That very night we were in charge of the Youth Meeting. It was such a beautiful and blessed night with the people of Resistencia. That gathering was very important step because it paved the way for the rest of the week.
Monday was a day for us to get to know each other better; our team and the Gutiérrez Family. We played volleyball, tennis, card games; we laughed a lot. We went Monkey Hunting in a mosquito infested mini jungle, well we went LOOKING for Monkeys. But it was an UTTER FAILURE! We returned without having seen even one Monkey but with plenty of Bug bites. Good Times =). On Tuesday we painted in the morning and we had the Soldiers Meeting in the evening. Wednesday we painted in the morning and in the evening we had Home League. Thursday we painted and visited the Red Shield. Friday we painted and had Home League at the Outpost and to close the night we went out bowling! Definitely a night to remember!!!! Saturday was our recreational day at the House of Dominga, a soldier of the Outpost. We rode horses and had fun together. Furthermore we had Happy Hour with the Children of the Outpost, they are such beautiful souls. Later on that day we went to the Corp for our final Youth Meeting. Sunday, our final day here in Resistencia, we did our Happy Hour with the kids in the Corp and now we are on our way out to our last meeting here. We will part Resistencia but it will always be a part of our lives.
