Day 2 – What an awesome day! One team member described the day in one word – WOW. We had such a wonderful time today ministering to the people at the villages we visited.

Village 1 – We had the opportunity to go and play with/love on/feed/spend time with/carry/throw in the air/sweat with some great people. We went to a church in a village where there were a ton of families. Prior to going to the village we each loaded up a cart with food enough to feed two families…oil, rice, spaghetti and tuna were some of the items that we each purchased. As we played with the children and talked with the adults we were able to show them the LOVE that Christ has given us….After playing with the kids we all went to the church and sang songs, did a drama and Brad gave his testimony (what an awesome part of the day!!). After that we handed out the bags of food. One per person who had a ticket (given out by the pastor prior to our arrival) received a bag of food. It was mind blowing to think that the bag they received would be their food supply for a week….

Village 2 – After lunch we headed out to Village #2 where we played baseball, did the girls nails, let them play with our hair, played tag and played “Quack-didily-O-MY”  with them. At this village we loved on the girls and boys showering them with love and our poor Spanish. (Most of them have a better knowledge of English than we do of their language).

I know I can speak for all of us when I say we were truly blessed by this day. Wow. As we sang tonight “how HE loves us”….God truly is amazing. We can’t wait to see what happens tomorrow as we head to Church John 3:16. Praise God.
