I want to thank Scarlett for coming to El Salvador for two weeks in July as part of her internship program with Voices on the Border in Washington D.C. Scarlett visited CSM for two nights and met various members of the community.

Scarlett and I attended a meeting at the Temple in San Luis on Thursday, July 13th. Present was the Pastoral Team and it´s members, Miguel Ventura and Father Bernardo, a priest from France who visited the Pastoral Team last year. Last year he committed to supporting the Pastoral Team each year to supply them aid for materials, supplies and various celebrations. Scarlett was pleasantly surprised by the length of the meeting (which lasted from 9am-2pm) and the participation of community members and their willingness to share their testimonies, thoughts and prayers with each other.

The community welcomed Scarlett and many have asked about her since she left. Here is a picture taken by a friend in Perquin.
