Little Miracles of 2008
In the last year it felt like such a difficult year with the economic turmoil going on in the world and many setbacks, and it felt like we spun our wheels some last Year. On the other hand, it’s all a matter of perspective and we have been quite busy, we’ve got good health, and we’ve got a lot to be thankful for.
For example, our core team managed to stay together this far, and other people came and left.
We upgraded 2 vehicles this year.
We have a huge dining room table that fits all of us. We got the materials for free and Jono built it.
We have some new monthly sponsors this year, a real miracle!
We have a website set up and running! http://proyectopuebla.org
