Back in Nauta!

Hello,     We are all safely back in Nauta. Our stay in the river village called Bagazan was a day longer than we had anticipated. The Real Life team met us there and we were able to celebrate the 4th of July with them. We had a BBQ and played volleyball and soccer with the people there. The Lord really blessed our ministry in Bagazan. We were a part of church services several times where the students really stepped up and got out of their comfort zones. Severin taught many of the children to make rope bracelets and they loved it! Katie was amazing with the children, she was...

Our First Day!

What a blessing to be with this group of girls. In the last few hours… while us leaders catch up on a few things (like some needed sleep)… the team of girls have been singing worship songs, showering, resting and… a whole lot of laughing.   So – What a first day! Let’s see, in order to pick off where Jessica left off last night…I’ve asked a couple of the gals to share some about our first day.  I hope to update this way daily…however, that will depend on the internet in San Pedro. Heading there...
