We have arrived! Everyone has settled in to their lodging for the week and had a hearty lunch (and birthday celebration!). There were a few hiccups getting through customs, but everyone is in great spirits and ready to serve this week! Today after orientation we are heading to Pastor Josiah's church to pray over the church, our week here, and the community. We will have dinner with Pastor, then call it an early night to rest up for the week ahead!

Happy birthday to Jon and Debi! We all got to enjoy this delicious birthday cake to celebrate them at lunch today.

Tonight at the church we were able to connect with old friends, pray over the church, the materials we will be using, and the community we will be serving in.

After a good nights rest we boarded our van and headed to church at Pastor Josiah's.

VBS began today, and as the day went on it only got bigger! We had so much fun doing story, songs, crafts and games.

The rain kept us from being able to do as much outside work as we had wanted today. However, the team took advantage of that available time and used it to connect with each other, and with others at the church!

Revival services are being held every night this week in a tent not far from the church. Every night a few members of the team are going up front and sharing a message or testimony. Keep the team in your prayers as we continue VBS, work at the church and ministry this week.

Today we got to visit the same children's home we were at 2 years ago! It was amazing getting to deliver gifts, and love on the people there this afternoon.
