Escuela Hogar-Eva Peron-4 Stake Service Project

This was a service project to clean the school grounds for this orphanage here in Mendoza. There are about 350 children that attend school here, from ages 4-14.

Members and friends from 4 stakes gathered to clean and make the grounds safe for the children to play.






Steve and I even got into the act. It was great to be a part of such a great thing. To help is what it is all about.




The San Martin Young Women all came ready with their sticks and their smilesto pick up paper.






Elders in action. Some working a little harder than others, The smiles say it all.






They all wanted to show off their big muscles. There were not many tools, so they just got in and pulled with their hands. Many huge truck loads of weeds and debri were hauled away.






A tired, but very happy bunch of missionaries from Mision Mendoza. And a very grateful school for the service rendered.
