Greetings from Central America!

It has been a good first week here in Nicaragua, very early tomorrow I head to El Salvador with my sister Libby, and her friend and fellow Peace Corps Volunteer, Adam.

Some pictures are up at Facebook... you don´t need an account to view them with this link!

Here also are pictures of the students in Libby´s village who received scholarships via St. Michael´s Christian Service Committee.  The days are just packed, so Libby will distribute the dresses when she gets back in early August.

We had Mass three successive days in Libby´s village at three chapels: San Francisco, Cristo Rey, and Nuestra Señora de Perpetua Socorro.  Each day I heard 2-3 hours of confessions  before Mass! Many graces, but exhausting.  We went to visit the sick, too.

We went to a wedding for her fellow volunteer, Molly, and we went to see a big canyon today!

See you back at St. Michael´s in a week!

God Bless,
Fr. Ben Hasse
