1st Day!!!

Wow!!

Today was great!! Amazing!!! We woke up this morning around 7:30 after going to bed at like 4:30 and ate breakfast here at the hostal. After breakfatst we loaded up on the bus and went to church in Chilca. The service was in a way similar to ours but it was still different. The people are so loving and caring and are just soooo thankful we are here. After church we went to a local restaurant to eat lunch. The food was so good. After lunch we took a tour through the orphanage to see where we would be working and what we would be doing. We came back to the hostal around 4 and had a couple hours to relax until supper at 6. After we ate we had a group meeting to get to know everyone better and talk about the plans for the week. This has been really great so far and i cant wait until in the morning because im so ready to see what God has in store for us.


Love you all and thanks for praying for us!!!!!!

Good to hear from you! Your dad preached an awesome message yesterday!

2 Thess. 2
15 So, brothers and sisters, stand strong...

16-17 May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father encourage you and strengthen you in every good thing you do and say. God loved us, and through his grace he gave us a good hope and encouragement that continues forever.

Hope you have an awesome week!

I know your mom and dad miss you, but I am so excited for you to have this opportunity to serve God so far away from home. I am sure that it will be an experience you will never forget. Talk to you soon.
Love,
