The Finale

Click here for updated photos from today.

Today was our final day at the Rose of Sharon School. It was a very emotional day as we said goodbye to many new friends from Colombia. The project went great and today we were able to see the water flow. For me this was a very special moment. The Aquascape Foundation has completed it's second project in a third world country. I am so thankful to this team of people who have joined us on this trip. I am also thankful for the families of our teammates for the sacrifices they have made to make this trip possible. This team worked so hard and so well together. I am so proud of the work that they did. Many have signed up to sponsor children from the community so they can attend school. What a blessing it was to see these boys and girls at school because of their new sponsorship. Tomorrow we will drive to Cartagena for a day of shopping and hitting the beach. The team deserves some relaxation. We are all looking forward to heading home on Sunday. Please keep our team captain, Ed in your prayers tonight. He has a 103 fever and is not feeling well. Thanks for all your love and support.

Carla for the team.
