Tribute to "The Indiana Team"

Yesterday our good friends from Crossroads Community in Indiana left us to go back to the states. They were amazing partners and we would like to take a moment and pay a tribute.

(to the tune of the really long song that we sang on Sunday.... me gozare, me gozare, me gozare... la la la la la la la. JK)

You waited at the airport, threw our 50 lb bags on top of a bus
Let the ladies eat first at each meal without makin a fuss
Two by two you sent workers down to get spit up on
And two by two they returned only a little scarred, mon
To Casa Lamar, Casa Angelitos, y Casa Samuel
You played lots games with little Manuel (s)
Kent hit it off with each of the babies
And Casey hid from them like they had rabies
Lindsey's steady hand made Promesa grand
And we all know she's not from the Avatar land
We worked well together in all sorts of weather
And although we don't miss your dishes
We send you the best of wishes

Thanks for a great two weeks- you all were great with these kids and we can see the footprints yall left here! God bless!- ROH team

  2. Thanks for the tribute ladies (and Matt)! My defense is that Casa Angelitos was better off with me somewhere far away! You guys are an awesome group and it was a blast serving alongside you, I just wish it would've been a little longer. Keep loving on those kiddos, yes, even when they smell like poop! You guys and Casa Bernabe will be in my prayers!
