Day 3!

Last night, we had devotion time outside! The cool evening air felt great! We had a wonderful time of fellowship, worship, sharing, and learning! We talked about why us Broadus people go on these mission trips. We've decided that we all love the fellowship so much! We always meet new people and get to know our church family better! Garry spoke about making right decisions, expecially early in life; making the right decisions with family, friends, and yourself (healthwise, mentally, and spiritually)! After group devotion, a cut throat game of UNO began.

Day 3 is here already?!

Work is most definitely progressing at the work sites!

At the Baptist Community Center, all 21 windows have now be REPLACED! The crew finished the shelves and are now painting them all sorts of beautiful and fun colors!

The construction crew at the Friendship House have finished putting the new timber around the playground, put a third coat of red paint on the swing set, scrubbed the slides, and are getting ready to paint the jungle gym! Lots of mulch is being moved around! The kids are SO excited as they watch the crew fix up their play ground! Some guys from the other construction crew came to help insulate the shed behind the Friendship House! They have been cleaning it out and and getting ready to refurbish! The shed will be used to store food to be distributed through the Friendship House!

The amount of kids keeps growing at the Community Center! Today, around 50 CHILDREN came to play with the recreation crew! They turned the hula hoops into jump ropes! And stoomped on a bunch of balloons! Inside, the kids were bowling and making pictures with their thumbprints.

The same children PLUS ONE came to the Friendship House: Noah, Treasure, Justice, Jordan, and Chris; plus Sa'nae! We're getting to know the kids very well! Today, we fished in a small pond; the young kids LOVED it! We had relay race with water-filled sponges and played with the big Parachute! The kids decorated visors and had a peanut butter and jelly lunch!

Joye had 7 ladies in her Bible study today! They had a great study and a fried chicken lunch provided by another church in the area!

Everyone is enjoying the cooler weather. It should be in the lower 60s tonight! We're excited.

Keep us in your prayers!

Gina sweats hearts!

Blessings!!!
