Worshipping with the local church is always one of the highlights of any campaign and Sunday was no different. We sang some praise/worship songs and then two hymns, "Great is Thy Faithfulness" and "How Great Thou Art." Although both were in Spanish is easy for the team members to sing along in English. Nelson preached in Spanish and then after each point did a brief translation in English. He made it seem easy, but I know it had to be very tiring!
Because children's camp was still going on, we didn't seem as many familiar faces as normal. Most of them were counselors/teachers at the camp which didn't end until Sunday afternoon.
Stephen and I did a quick orientation after the service to welcome teams from all three churches, Faith Baptist, NC; Bay Life Church, FL and Calvary's Cross Baptist, NC.
It was a short afternoon, but we were on board the vans and bus by 4:00 p.m. Translators for the week are assigned the first night that the whole team is present. Once everyone was matched up they began the process of sharing Jesus door-to-door in the neighborhood. Salvadorans, who don't translate, set up the inflatable, sound system and the rest of the equipment.
Stephen and I both made some new friends, but best of all, there were 40+ professions of faith.
