We have had a GREAT couple of days here so far! Other than the terrible humidity — everything is near perfect!!
Here are some pics of our time so far….
We have spent time doing community outreach and working with kids at a summer camp program. This team is incredible! Not only have they loved deeeply – but they just give 100% all the time.
And to top it all off — they are SO FUNNY!!!! Every single person on this team has such a great sense of humor and our nightly debrief times end up leaving us with cramped stomachs from how much we laugh at each other!
Here are some of the things they have to say …..
Maria: “God is so amazing and I am learning so much!”
Daniela: “I love Puerto Rico — I tried Malta and it is delicious!”
Chassey: “I can see God’s hand at work in this beautiful country of Puerto Rico and I am being blessed by the people’s sweet spirits!”
Simon: “I feel like the people here accepted me right away. All the old ladies say I look like their grandson!”
Alicia: “I love Puerto Rico, and I am learning a lot!”
Esteban: Everyday I continue to be amazed by how undeserving we are and how great God is. It’s a true blessing to be in Puerto Rico and I am very thankful!”

I am so proud of the growth that I have already seen in each of these kids’ lives! I cannot wait to spend 7 more days with them — watching God transform them! They are learning how to be bold and really step out in their faith – and above everything else — they really know how to love well!!
