Wednesday night and all is NOT quiet! The men are watching a football game (soccer) with Honduras playing El Salvador and the women are having a "chat session". We don't have every tongue, tribe and nation, but we do have English, Spanish, United States, Honduras and Nicaragua... our own piece of heaven right here!
This morning we heard from three of the pastors from Training Pastors International (TPI). They explained how they started, how they grew, and some of the changes they have experienced. We also heard several more testimonies of how their teachings have impacted the lives of other pastors and their churches.
We continued teaching through The Fear of the Lord with the adults while the children played and had an astronomy lesson from Gidget Graham. After lunch, Janna King led a session for the kids (and adults) in building and flying balsa wood airplanes and kites. We had the perfect light breeze (thank you God!) and everyone had a great time. This afternoon Charissa Feathers and Emily Bain helped the fathers and sons make balloon sculptures (string, glue and glitter covering a balloon to be popped later) and the mothers and daughters make decorative flip-flops.
Six-year old Fredmann fell while playing and cut his chin pretty bad; he didn't realize it until he got up and saw all the blood. We were able to get him patched up pretty well and gave his parents instructions on how to tend to his wound once he gets home. Please pray for no infections to get into his cut.
That's all for now. Please continue to pray for us as we try to reflect God's glory and let His life flow from us. Amen!

Of course! Jamie had his butterfly bandages, antiseptic wipes and band-aids. Sandy added some bottled water for cleansing and Neosporin for healing and he should be good as new! Sure got a lot of attention, though!
ReplyDeleteIt is wonderful to be updated on everyone's activities this way!!! I am so excited about what the Lord is doing in and threw each of the team but especially what the Lord is doing in Emily's life, we are just a little proud of her!! We love everyone and are praying for continued blessings especially praying for Telma, Israel Rocha's wife, and praying that the mosquitoes will not be an issue.
