Giant Team

Our largest team of the year arrived Saturday night--almost 100 people from Christ's Chapel Bible Church high school ministry!  If you've ever worked with high school kids, you know there's a great deal of energy involved.  

Sunday morning they went to the second service at our church in Lourdes, as it was the only service that would accommodate 100 extra people.  Sunday afternoon, we had a futsal tournament, also in Lourdes.  It was quite a site to see 200+ people (gringos and Salvadorans) descend on the soccer fields.

Yesterday morning was our first day sharing in the schools.  The group is large, we have twenty classroom teams, so we sent half to one school and half to another.  In the afternoon, we also have two simultaneous activities.  One group is holding a three-day VBS while the other group is having kid's club in three different locations.  As you can imagine, it takes a lot of manpower to make everything happen.  

Several of the Hilo, Aguja ladies and I are working with the moms who come to VBS with their children.  We are teaching them to cross stitch while taking the opportunity to share the love of Jesus.  

More to come as the week progresses.
