Starring Kusi’s Smallest

Posted on Wednesday, September 29, 2010 Leave a Comment

A new video from the Girasoles home in Kusi!

Each year, the boys of Kusi learn new choreographed dances to do with the visiting volunteer work teams that spend a week at the home. While they continue with the old favorites, like Jehova Es Mi Pastor and Escalando Peldaños, they add at least one new dance to the repertoire. In this dance, it is the youngest and smallest boys dancing to Giovanni Rios’ “La Iglesia Va Para Arriba.”

Oh how these videos make me miss the jungle and the World Cup fever! I can’t count the number of times that I heard both of these songs at night when the generator was turned on – it had to be in the hundreds just the five days alone that the team from Mauldin, SC was with us!

Wavin’ flag – K’Naan and David Bisbal

Waka Waka (This Time for Africa) – Shakira

Back Home.

After three glorious months, I have made it back to Michigan.

Here are a few videos from the summer:

Ica Candy Trip

Posted on Saturday, July 17, 2010 Leave a Comment

As a sequel to the Mala Trip video my brother Randy made in 2008, here is the 2010 Ica version, starring the youngest members of the Dearborn team, Sarah, Brandon and Griffin.

In this video, Sarah, Brandon and Griffin take you on a ride through Ica to a market where they purchase various Peruvian candy bars to share with the 33 boys living in the abandoned boys home at Girasoles Ica and the children of First Presbyterian Dearborn.

Videos from Puerto Alegria

Posted on Friday, July 16, 2010 Leave a Comment

Here are a couple videos from time spent at Puerto Alegria and in Iquitos. There is always something exciting going on (or somebody being silly) when you live with 40 boys!

I love listening to these three boys (Dairo, Waldair and Jair) laughing! One afternoon, we went to a park in Iquitos to play. They loved going on the seesaw and just could not stop laughing the whole time they were on it.

No work teams and the weekend means lots of fun and playing around. Here, Junior and Jair, are going a little stir crazy and being little boys.
