Hermana Meeks latest update

Today I got to email with Amy. She is back in Panama City for a few days to get food, take a shower, take care of business and then will fly back to San Blas to complete her mission. In one of the pics she is washing her hair. Funny!!! She has to wash her hair in a river and the other day when she was down there a crocodile came out of the river and up the bank of the river. She said she thought she was going to die. No one bothered to tell her about the crocodiles in the river.

Another one of the pictures is of her first baptisms in San Blas. I believe that the picture is taken outside of the church as the church is built out over the water. The young girl that is being baptised is so sweet. Her mother was 12 years old when she had her and her father is 14 years older than her mother. She has ten brothers and sisters and cannot read or write. Amy and her comp are giving her reading lessons everyday.

There are also pics of Amy in the native indian dress, molas, and she was doing the traditional Indian dance with them. They said she caught on really well but thought it was funny when she did the Indian dance and added in the robot. That's our girl!!!!!!
