Day 4

         Hello from the team! Yesterday was a great day, we made some progress on the houses  and we also got to meet people on the reservation. When we saw Pinky the other day, she invited us to go to pizza in the park on the reservation. The people there want to have the event to build a closer community. They also want the kids to get some food in their tummy.

          In the afternoon, there was an event called Night Of Another Hope at Lakota Hope. Some artisans gathered around the pavilion and sold some artwork. We served hot dogs to the people who came to connect with the community. Some other people on missions trips also joined us.
       

           After everybody ate, we came together for worship. It was cool to see people from different cultures in one place, worshipping. When worship ended, a woman named Ruby shared her story with us.

           When she was a little girl, her mom left her. Her dad died before she was born. Ruby’s grandparents raised her. They were her Mom and Dad. After they passed away, she only had God. Because she grew closer to Him, God used her in many wonderful ways. She started a soup kitchen, did Meals on Wheels, and really helped the homeless. She would like us to pray for the homeless, so that their conditions would greatly improve. Ruby also advised us to be grateful for what we have. Ruby is a selfless, wonderful person.
