Here are a few photos from the most recent Sunday School Teacher Training/Retreat. We met Saturday and Sunday at Sinoe, a retreat center in Ahuachapan, El Salvador. The retreat center is located on Lake Espino where there is a beautiful volcano view. There were around 30 teachers present, representing 10 of the 12 Evangelical Methodist Churches in El Salvador.

Each teacher present received a book with 10 new lessons as well as a bag filled with resources to support the lessons. The beautiful bags were sent with love by Central UMC in Laurinburg, NC. The teachers LOVED them!!!

| Our first activity of the weekend was to create this mural together as an example of an activity teachers can do with their students to help them learn Psalm 119:105. |
 |
| During our relaxation time, we took a boat ride around Lake Espino. |
This new unit of lessons is titled "Palabras Para Mi Corazon" (Words for My Heart.) Each lesson centers around a particular memory verse and includes games and learning activities to help students plant the seeds of God's Word in their hearts so they are ready to face the good and bad days with God's help.
