Today was a blessed day. We got to go to the beach in Placencia. After that, we went to the church to have a delicious dinner and got the chance to paint the preschool playground. We started VBS at 4 pm. Today there were approximately 140 kids, so we had an increase in size compared to yesterday. We taught them new songs. It was amazing!

Having an opportunity to bless families with a bag of groceries was a blessing for us too. Knowing that there were people that were asking God for a blessing of food, and then God sent us to take that blessing to them was so overwhelming.

We gathered together and prayed for Pastor and the local church that were present, we prayed for God's blessing and guidance to him and the church.
After we prayed pastor and the church members also prayed for us, for blessing and safe travel. It was hard saying goodbye.

Today we headed early in the morning to Belize City to take the water taxi for us to go to an Island called Caye Caulker. We had the opportunity to feed the Tarpon fish and then we went snorkeling on the second-largest Barrier reef in the whole world. Our last stop was swimming with the sharks and stingrays. It was an experience that we will never forget.
