Hey! It was our first day of VBS: A Prayer Safari. We had over 40 K5 children (and they say more come as the week goes on...a little scary!) and everything went very well. They are so adorable. Many cried b/c they wanted to be with an older brother or sister, but after we got into activities they forgot about their troubles. We've ran into a few snags (like the glue just disappeared, I fried Jorgito's speakers and we couldn't play the music, we didn't know if we'd have any helpers from the church)...but God so provided! We found the glue. We found speakers at the church. We had 6 helpers from the church. The helpers were huge b/c it is hard to understand little kids anyway, especially when their language is a little different with an accent too. The theme for VBS is Mathew 6, so iPRAY was a perfect study to preface the trip! God is good. We had a simply magnificent performance by 5 right whales in front of our cottages last night. It was breath-taking. Fins, tails, heads, all popping out of the water. Apparently it is mating season so there are lots of whales close to shore. Don't worry, they're underwater so it's not that graphic. We have such a wonderful team. We have so much fun. Pastor Watson cracks me up! He's great! All are doing well. Keep praying for salvation of our VBS kids and for health and safety of the team. God is doing such great things! So excited for each new day here. Miss you and praying for this weekend's launch of 12:30pm. Talk to you soon! In Him, Jen <><
