When we arrived at NPH, I was not sure what to expect. We were unpacking the buses when a boy named Raul greeted some of the other people that he had remembered from previous years. Minutes later all the kids came rushing out wanting to play with us, and at the end of the night we were all making friends with the kids and having a fun time playing volleyball and basketball. At the beginning of the week we started the vacation bible school with some songs, and a skit. We acted out the beginning of the movie "The Chronicles of Narnia". Throughout the week we made different crafts. After school we would eat lunch and play soccer or swim with the kids. Playing soccer was a lot of fun even though we only won two or three games. This trip was very fun, and it helped me learn about the kids at NPH, how much we are blessed for what we have, and how much we can affect the lives of kids there.
