Welcome back! This is Grace Brandon again :)
Today was a very busy day! We began the day walking to school as usual. We all enjoyed our time in class today. Many of us led lessons and activities for our students so we got lots of good practice and great experience as future teachers. We are all so blessed with incredible students and everyday we are reminded of Christ's provision and His blessings through each of our kiddos. I am so grateful for the opportunity to teach and love them.
I am currently placed at the Catholic School, and today we got to attend another mass practice. As someone who has never attended a mass, I have learned so much. During practice, the students will run through a range of more traditional songs, rehearse lines, and go over expectations for how mass should look. Tomorrow, we have our actual service. I am looking forward to seeing my students showcase their learning in rehearsing for mass. In my totally unbiased opinion, my kids are definitely worth bragging about and are going to do awesome.
Later today, we also had some fun team bonding to wrap up the trip! We went back to Banana Bank, a beautiful old villa with a fantastic swimming pool, to swim and hangout together. It was a great time and we all got to relax and enjoy the weather and each other's company. We also got to visit their rescued jaguar (yes, I said that)!
To finish off the day, we played some volleyball back at the compound. We LOVE playing volleyball here and will take any chance we can to play together. Despite the fact that scores are never kept, my team definitely won ;)
See you all back home soon,
Grace
P.S. Hi Mom!!
