Caleb's been staying super busy, doing different small projects and stuff like that. He took his last Spanish class 2 weeks ago, he feels like he learned A LOT these past couple weeks, he'd only go a couple times a week, when he could fit it into his schedule. He really loved his teacher, he speaks *really good* English. Caleb's role will pretty much stay the same, even with us living off base, he'll still be in charge of the things he's been in charge of and taking care of different things around the base.
We got the keys to our house 2 weeks ago and we've slowly moved things into the house the past couple weeks and we officially moved in June 5th. It's been really *weird* living off base and having a house of our own. We love it, we love everything about this house God's blessed us with and we can't say thank you enough to the people who joined our support team and gave a one time donation to help make this move possible. The past couple months, God has just been blowing our minds with amazing miracles and just showing us how much He really cares about us and how the small things in life, He cares about those things too.
Two weeks ago, some of our sites Celebrated Mother's Day *Here in Nicaragua, it's always May 30th* and Micro finance Celebrated their second Anniversary, which I was able to be apart of and help set up, it was a lot of fun. All the communities were here for that day, not everyone was able to show up but there was a BIG turn out.

ABC Education Site had a Mother's Day party in both the Communities, it was so sweet to have the mommies of the kids there and Celebrate them, it was all about the moms and the kids LOVE their mommies. Social Work also Celebrated Mother's Day, in Peirda Quemada *which is one of my favorite communities* of little girls, I was helping take care of the kids were aren't a part of the Social Work, and then Miriam told me that Maria Jose wanted me to come over to where they were having the party, and the little girls had a surprise for me. A couple of them shared somethings about me, and their moms bought me a beautiful pink top. I felt so special and never imagined I'd fall in love with so many kids, I wish I could keep them all for myself.
Some of you may have heard about this little boy, named Wesley, he was hit on the road last fall, and no one expected him to live because he was in such rough shape, with many prayers and Miracle after Miracle, Wesley is still with us, they were told he'd never talk, walk or be normal again. BUT GOD HEALED this child. Today, Wesley is TALKING, WALKING and acting like a normal kid, he's playing with the other kids, it's amazing.

June 5th, we had 6 interns arrive to help us out during the summer, Micah, Ryan, Andrew, Shelly, Jenna & Morgan. Jamie arrived 2 weeks earlier and it was a total God thing because she's been able to really help Celia get organized before the summer teams start and just getting to know Celia better.
I will have an intern helping me this summer as well, in the media. It's not a site, but I've been super busy with going around to each Ministry Site and taking videos and shooting lots of pictures. I love it so much, not only do I take pictures, but I get to go around to all of our 6 sites and see the amazing things that God is doing, build relationships with the people we're working with and of course play with the kids, that's my favorite part. I have A LOT of favorites and I am excited to be sharing these experiences with my intern Morgan, I've gotten to know her a little bit since she's been here and I'm so excited to be working with her this summer, we're going to have a blast and I know God is going to just blow us out of the water with media this summer :) Can't wait!!!!!! We have an SI Nicaragua facebook page, you can check it out for daily updates and find out what's going on here in Nicaragua.
Again, we want to say THANK YOU to everyone who joined our team for monthly support and gave a one time donation, we were just blown away at how God provided.
Today, June 9th, our first summer team arrives. Then Friday, June 13th, from our very own home church in Centreville Michigan, Firm Foundation Ministries, a group is making their way to Nicaragua for a week, and Caleb & I are super excited to see people we know and to have them experience Nicaragua and all that God is doing here. So please be praying for their team, that God would give them peace, safety as they travel & that all their luggage would arrive.
God Bless
The Fletchers in Nicaragua.
