Hi Everybody!!!
We had another really nice warm day. Right after breakfast we headed back to Pastor Rafael's to finish putting the last bit of tin on the church roof. That's all done now, which is really nice!! The church is looking really good! We also worked on what will be the church kitchen, which is connected to the rest of the church. We were working on building the walls. They're using really cool hollow styrofoam bricks, almost like lego, so we built a few layers of that, and then we had to mix cement to pour into them. It went quite well.
We worked at the church till early afternoon, and then Ryan and Juan Carlos took us downtown in Guaymas, to get some ice cream and see the city. It was really fun. Around 3:00 we went to an orphanage outside of Guaymas to hang out with the kids. We've gone there on previous trips as well, and the kids always seemed to enjoy it! This time we only got to play with them for a few minutes, before they all left because someone had invited them to McDonalds. :) But it worked out alright. A few of the older boys stayed back to play soccer with the guys, and we visited with one of the workers at the home. We all took turns holding a three week old baby who was there. He was soooooo cute!!!
We came back to Brenda's for supper, and the evening has been pretty quiet. It seems that some of us haven't really switched over to Mexico time. It's crazy how early I'm ready for bed!! :)
Anyway, altogether the day was really nice, and God is so faithful. I'm so thankful for what He is doing, and I'm praying that He will work through us to make a difference here, and change us so we come back even closer to Him!!! He is so good, and we want to lift up His name; He is so worthy.
Thank you again soooo much for your prayers. I really appreciate all of you!!
God bless you all!!
