a totally unrelated post

I, Arlene, went on a retreat last weekend at the funkiest retreat center that I believe exists. It's called Crossroads and is near Sosua. The picture above is of one of the bathrooms.
Anyway. I went on a personal spiritual retreat to prepare myself to move to Los Higos for month while a team form Trinity Western University is living there. The team of women will use their time to teach English, computer and music to the club, to continue gardening, and to minister to the women in their host families. We're really excited to have this team-- it's so cool out teams that live in the community are able to build relationships with people that Andre and I haven't gotten to know. I am also excited to live in Los Higos for a while, because I'm sure it will help me to know Los Higos better and to better see God's vision for the community and my part in that vision.
So, while I'm living in Los Higos, I don't know how often I'll be able to come down and use the computer. Hopefully I still be able to post once in a while during the next few weeks.
