Today, we continued the third day of the routine that's been established for the week -- morning devotional, breakfast and then we divide up to work at the home with the children with puppets and games and activities or break up to take part in one of the work crews -- the kitchen renovation crew, house building crew or food distribution crew. After three days, we're a bit weary. The constant activity and long days, staying upbeat for the kids and stepping up to serve whenever and wherever there is a need for the children or our group has all begun to take a bit of a toll on the team. But parents, you'd be proud of this team. They pushed through and kept on going. And we hope to bring some of this enthusiasm and energy and spirit and love of service home with us. Because as Skid likes to say, this trip isn't about one week. This one week is a huddle to prepare us for 51 more weeks of service. Parents, family, friends, members of North Boulevard, we hope you see a difference. And that we and you do not grow weary in doing good for at the right time we will see the harvest....

| Our July 11th devotional if you're joining us.... We apologize in the delay since we last posted. We hope you'll pick up the devotional with us where we last left off. |

| Thank you to our amazing kitchen crew. You spent most all of your time preparing our meals and didn't have as much of a chance to play with the children and experience all of the interactions in Maneadero and blessings of the many activities. Instead, you worked so that we could enjoy those things and we thank you for your sacrifice and service. The food was fantastic...making it difficult to explain to our families and friends how it is we gained weight while on a mission trip.... |
