Together at Common Hope

We're all here! Joanie, Sarah, Bridget and Katie flew down today--like the rest of us they had an early start from Minneapolis. Joanie got the earliest start, driving down from Duluth in the early morning hours! Deb, Morgan, Nan, Claire and Stacey had a relaxing day exploring more of Antigua. Alex and Charlotte traveled to Escuintla to spend the day with Alex's family.

Common Hope provides a nice dormitory space for volunteers and our team is settled in for the week. Everyone but Charlotte and Alex went to mass tonight. Go figure--the minister and her family are the only ones who didn{t go to church today!

We've signed up for work projects tomorrow--looks like each morning and afternoon 4 or 5 of us will be working on a construction project--building a house with a family--and the rest of us will help with various other projects.
