At the Car Wash

Almost every Saturday, we pay these girls to wash our car. They are part of Cindy's Bible Study. She has been discipling these girls since they were 12. They are now 17-18 and have taken over the leadership and teaching of a new group of girls. They meet with Cindy during the week to study the lesson and prepare for their teaching time. I have really enjoyed getting to know these young women over the last 3 years. They are a lot of fun and seem to really want to follow Christ. I took this picture back in April. One of the girls had graduated from high school that day and we were having a special merianda (snack) in celebration. The graduate is the one holding up the peace sign. She hopes to go to college and become a teacher. The 2 girls on the left graduated last year. One is in college and the other hopes to begin midwifery school soon. The girl on the right is our next door neighbor and the youngest of the bunch. She is still in high school.
