God loves.

I think that has been a theme so far. God loves the DR. God loves us. No matter what, God loves.

God has been rocking us the past few days (in a good way). We have done 2 extremely hot, intense, and crazy VBS days. The kids are doing so well! They are jumping right in and loving kids like crazy! This group has so much excitement that follows them... in the bus, in the rooms, eating dinner, and all that definitely flows into VBS as well. So proud of them.

This team has blown us leaders away so far. They are unified. There has been no drama. They have bonded as a group with Dominicans (already getting Pastor Quena to do crazy dance moves on the first day and laugh a lot). They are so flexible (despite the difficult living conditions... water in rooms, no showers at times, wet beds from leaking AC, AC that often doesn't work and when it does it's under 40 degrees, etc). They care so much about each other. But because of this, the enemy is going to be trying to break this apart. Be praying for that.

We had a amazing moment of brokneness as a team for debrief last night. Super vulnerable with each other. Lots of prayer. God is good!

More to come later, but sorry for short posts but internet has been shaky.

Thanks for all your prayers and comments. I will try to read some to team.

If you are parents, you would be so proud of your kids. They are rocking it!

  1. Praising the Lord waaaayyy up here in Irish country! Sounds like God is answering prayers, so we will continue to pray. What a blessing you all are to the Dominicans down there and to us at home who are following you.

    Glad to hear that you're having fun. Pretty sure I can guess who may have been involved in the crazy dancing. :)

    Yea, God, and yea, team!

  4. I can't wait to see how this theme translates to the people that this team is "next to."
