Sunday Funday

***** I wrote this yesterday before we for internet! I left it as is I will give you a current update soon. 

We started the day at Nicaragua church. This is the smaller church that Marta works with. We sat in on Sunday school. We danced, worshipped and played soccer!

I watched as our kids reconnected with the kids in Peru that they've seen before.

Today was about getting our feet wet literally and figuratively.

I watched as new kids, like Mumi, acclimate to the kids like she's lived here her whole life. Later she told me she wants to major in special education.

After we were done with Sunday school about to eat lunch Moran says, "I'm so excited I'm pumped so excited right now oh my gosh!" All in one breath.

I asked JD what he was most excited about this week and he said playing sports with the kids bc that's how he can connect with them. God will use anything and that's great!

We moved to beach initiation. All the newbies had to get in the water. It's kinda cold but they all did it. It was great bonding time for the team. 

I talked to Victoria most of the time. She told me about her burden for some of the team and how she expects God to move this week in their lives. Vicki is always expecting and it's refreshing.

We had dinner then went to the Church at the Beach  for night service. A pastor from Lima spoke and four of our boys responded to the call. I got to see God do some work and that was great. It was there that I began to see some mind sets shift. I began to see the wheels turning. I saw God stirring hearts.

Pray for your students. Pray that God uses this week to wake them up to His master plan. He wants them to be a part of it. Pray that they are keenly aware of that and take the steps to get there. They are all in different places with The Lord, and I want this week to awaken their souls to a more intimate place.

I realize that our team is here to minister but we all know that a lot of times God uses these times to minister to us. I feel that is esp for this team. I know quite a few of them came into this wanting exactly that. 

I'm sorry I haven't instagrammed. As soon as we got here the data dropped out. My phone says 3G but will not connect to the internet and Marta's internet isn't functioning either. I have SO many pictures to post and so many sweet moments I want you to see! Gosh. Pray we get internet. Please please please.

Last night we posted by using Ana's roaming data$$. I texted the post to Tina and had her log in. Wow. Struggles.

Tomorrow: 

Bible Fun Club

We do a whole thing about the fruit of the spirit! We do one at both churches. Pray that we exhibit the fruit just as much as we teach about it.

So much I want to say bit it's 11:47 and I have to bee ready to go at 8am. So till tomorrow!
