Today was our first day here in Miami, we started off with Worship at one of the Jamaican Churches. It was their youth Sunday and we were blessed to be part of it. After lunch we visited a place called Wynwood Walls, which is an art district in Miami. Marissa Jones had a really good time there- this is what she had to say about it:
"I enjoyed the Wynwood wall art because, It really showed how God took other peoples talents to brighten the world. As I walked through all the art, I would read who the artist were and alittle about their art. It would keep me grounded as I realized the artist are just normal people like you and I. It was very exciting and a learning experience. I would definitely go back.
Tomorrow we will be serving at a homeless shelter and at Miami Children's Initiative, please pray for us as we serve.

Today was a very busy day. This morning we went to our Ministry site at Broward homeless shelter,Half sang while the residents ate lunch while the others served, afterwards, we had the opportunity to get to talk with the residents,which was a blessing. After lunch we had the blessing of meeting some of MCI children, MCI is a nonprofit organization that helps struggling individuals to succeed. Lots of water playing since it was so hot.
Here is Logan's thought of today,
Something I took from today was that alot of the people in the community and at the Broward center have so little and have lost so much, but,they were still happy and friendly people. That really stuck out to me during the day.
God Bless

The residents at the shelter loved having us. We heard a few women say how blessed they were and how therapeutic our singing was for them. Praise God for opportunities such as these to use our gifts to bring glory to Jesus.

It was another great day. There was a lot of singing and praising Jesus at Broward homeless shelter ,Desmond shared with us how Broward homeless shelter helps the community, and how in return,and how the community gives back to them with many donations. Our day at MCI went very different today, school was back in so we helped in their after school program, which was very cool. we were so welcomed by the kids there it just made our hearts full.
Continue to pray for our team as we serve what God has called us to do.
