Canada's Team Latrine




These fine young men came to Caranavi, Bolivia.. said they would do anything..

Our house helper Maria and her two kids, had been living without a toilet for a couple months. The day before she had shared the hard ships of a stomach flu with no toilet..... So I asked Graham and Chad "Have you ever built a Latrine?" they hadn't but like good volunteers they were ready to do whatever, so with a couple of pictures from every missionaries favorite bedside reading, Where There is no Doctor, and a shovel they headed out...
We love Volunteers like Chad and Graham, they came to connect with the culture and do Anything..... that's a attitude for success. They also set up this blog page, spent five days taking care of the four Kraft kids, acted on our Live TV show and welded a stand together for the TV studio.. A Willingness... that was impacting.... as two who came following a traveling singing group. They said, "well we don't sing, or dance, but WE DO DISHES......" If you are willing to do anything..Caranavi might be the place for you... for a couple weeks,,, a few months... a lifetime...
