Saying Goodbye - Hearts Transformed
Volunteers say goodbye to the children of Ocotillo. In this photo is Ashlynne Basile.
The group of 11 finished and dedicated two new classrooms at the International Samaritan School in the garbage dump community of Ocotillo. Ippel led a group of male and female volunteers ranging from 17 years old to 58 years old. The children they served in the school and nursery left a great impression on all of the volunteers.
“It was very difficult to say goodbye to them this time,” said Ippel, who has traveled to Honduras with I.S. both as a volunteer and a trip leader four times.
A special thank you goes to volunteer Steve Kovach, who kept us updated on service trip activities through his blog. To read his blog, go to Steve's Blog.
