Update from Bethel University
Recreation Day

by Jonathan Pilafas | March 17, 2022 6:00 PM

For the last day of the trip, our group went on a swamp boat tour with Swamp & River Tours in Orange, TX! We went on this tour along with our friends in another Lake Charles PPM group from Belmont University.

Later on in the day, our group went crabbing in Hackberry, LA - which is essentially fishing, but for crabs. However, before crabbing, we paid a quick visit to a fun playground that we noticed off of the side of the highway.

After those activities, we went back to our campsite where we were able to cook the crabs we caught and ate them for dinner! It was a very fun way to conclude the trip, and we are so thankful for this opportunity to spend this time with one another!

Thank you, Bethel, for your heart to serve especially during a time when you had the choice to do other things. You saw the need of others and touched people in ways you will never know. Special thanks to the Praying Pelican Team for coordinating the details so the work can be done. And a special shout out to Jon who is serving our King so faithfully! May you all be blessed.

Praying for you and your team Jon, that God shows up and demonstrates his grace and mercy throughout your week of serving. You are amidst a group of people that are changing life here on earth that will have impacts for eternity! The adversity of missed flights, van issues, etc., told me that Satan was fighting back hard before you even arrived... keeping pushing ahead like David did in Psalms 57... I couldn't be more proud of you than I am right now in this very moment... Love ya buddy...!
