Today we had a stucco party! After breakfast and morning prayers, we enjoyed our second-to-last quiet time and then split up to tackle a section of the perimeter wall of the orphanage property, armed with stucco hawks, trowels, and cement bags. In healthy competition, we managed to blow OBT 1 out of the water, completing 16 wall sections (compared to OBT 1's mere 11 sections).
After the stucco party we had lunch and then headed down to the beach for some good old-fashioned R&R. We swam, played frisbee and futbol, and in general just had a great time. Later in the evening we had a debriefing session with our site leaders, during which we discussed our goals for the week and how they have been achieved. After dinner and evening prayers, Geoff and Mike led us in our group debriefing, urging us to question how we will take what we have learned and seen this week back home. Add in a splash of Val Yova and a touch of Madi, and overall it was a great debriefing session. After the debrief, the goodbyes and packing began. To echo our final post from OBT 1, we hope that tomorrow will bring safe travels to all of our workers and lead them to carry God's word back home with them.
