Friday - Food Pantry and Day Care

On Friday we went to South Quito with Byron to bring food to fill up a food pantry which is run by a church in that area. This is the same food pantry that we were able to go to last June trip. We were able to purchase food for 20 families. The women who run the food pantry expressed their thankfulness with many tears and many hugs. They were taking pictures of everything we brought and were to excited to see us again. The pastors wife said she thought that we would never be able to go back to the food pantry. After filling the pantry we went to the church to see what it looked like. We noticed that the beds they had for children to sleep on in the nursery were very old and dirty so we decided to give the church money for two mattresses so the kids would have a clean bed to sleep on.










Later on in the day we went to a daycare in which 75 kids are taken care of. We brought toys, cloths, strollers, and much more things that the daycare needed. These are kids that come from poor families where both parents have to work in order to provide enough food to feed their family.
