Day 4 from Graham

Day 4 - Sunday

Today is Sunday so we got the choice to go to a Catholic church here in Sitio de Matta, an Evangelistic Church in Turrialba, or stay here and work. I went to the church in Turrialba this morning called Communidad Cristiana para la Familia (Community Christian for the Family). The church wasn't that different from churches at home. The main differences between their church and mine were that it was in Spanish, and many people raised their hands above their heads when they prayed rather than folding them. We couldn't understand everything they were saying but it was fun, and Mr. Roland explained what they said, when we were driving home on the bus.

The group that stayed and worked this morning said they were about finished with the green house, and finished digging the holes for the recycle center. After lunch we went to work and we put up the posts for the walls and roof, put a cross beam across the top for the roof, and built a retaining wall to keep the dirt from washing out. When we finished working, we went over to the soccer field, and played a big soccer game in the wet and muddy field, and after we got cleaned up we practiced some Latin dancing :)
Today was really fun!
