One of the things that amazes me the most when I go down to Imuris is the locals. There are some truly amazing people that are down there and love on the kids.
Most of the time, the kids don't eat dinner on Saturday nights. It's only due to the generosity of the lady on the left in this photo. She and her husband come down every single Saturday afternoon and play games with the kids - usually a lottery type game that is like Bingo only with pictures. They bring down a truck full of snacks that they give out as prizes and somehow everyone gets one eventually. The generousity of the couple is astonishing - especially when you think of them doing it on a weekly basis.
They have two boys that bring their friends with them and play and love on the kids the whole time they are there. They are truly a family that knows how to love.
The girl in the middle is famous down there. She's a blind singer and she just pours out her heart and soul. She is so popular! They all want their picture with her and the ability to walk her around. She will sit there and play her guitar and sing for hours. It's like the kids get their own special concert everytime she goes down there - which is often. This is the second time that I was blessed to see her. She even serenaded those of us that were helping in the kitchen later that day. She's a true example of what God can do and how He has no limits.
