START YOUR PRAYERS!
We came to my favorite part of the trip today - starting our community visits. We first met with the Directiva of Casa de Zacate. 
Here is the very sad thing that learned. For the 2nd year in a row, there has been very little rain during the rainy season, which happens to be right now. Normally, it would have rained at least once a day on us & we have yet to see one drop! Here is what most of those crops look like...
It was Denise's birthday today, so the Pastoral Team bought her a cake. Mid to late May was when this was planted. And one of the side affects of no rain is worms. They are eating up the plants. Gusanos are destroying what was an already sad looking crop. No crop?
They won't eat. They're scared. They said those words. They really are scared because last year was a bad year & now this is a disastrous year.
Remember how we've talked about that they grow their bean crop by letting it grow up the corn stalk? No corn stalk, no bean crop. So, so sad. We need your help.
Please start those prayers?
Please pray for rain.
Please pray for the rains to wash away the worms.
Here's our rock star!
More fun times on Wednesday!
Betty
