Today we walked to church in the extreme Mexican heat! :) It was kind of a sturggle because I can't walk and take a drink at the same time so I showed up with a couple orange gatorade stains! I was super excited to meet all the people at the church I think I scared a few just by smiling too wide! Anyways, church was awesome even though all I basically understood was amen and hola...(I'm in Spanish 4 woops!)
Oh well, it was a good effort. Anywho, today was awesome we got to rest, which really meant pool time and extreme trampoline jumping with members from a local youth group! :) About 15 other kids from our group got to go to the local village and pass out flyers for the vacation bible school we will be doing for the rest of the week. They just came back and it sounds like they had an awesome expierence and im pumped to go for myself! We also just got some giant Frescas (which is like the Mexican Sprite, but more delicious!) Thats pretty much been the day so far! Off to a great start!
Audios!

I love God's perfect plan in bringing this team together! What a great team we have. They have gone above and beyond in serving each other and the Gatto family. We started Sunday by going to church at La Paz de Cristo and ended it with a group going out the neighborhood we'll be doing VBS in and going door to door inviting kids to come join us. The team is all looking forward to another morning and afternoon of work tomorrow. Each student has been placed in small teams and given various projects around the Ranch. They are starting to see the vision that God has for the Ranch and how GEBC has had a hand in every part of its development. It has been very cool to see them get invested in various activies and be the hands and feet of God in just a short period of time. After the work projects at the Ranch we will return home for an afternoon of rest and devotionals and will prepare for our night of VBS in the community.
Thank you for all of your continued prayers. We are thankful the team has remained healthy and hydrated in these first few days.
Prayer Requests:
- Continued positive attitude and unity of the team.
- Continued heath for EVERYONE!
We will update again soon!!
