Wednesday

I can't believe this lovely weather!!!! It is so nice, little humidity and just pleasant to be outside. Today we went to Andrew and Tassie's house. It is very nice and large. Then we went to the top of a mountain to see a statue of Padre Cicero, a man that the people practically worship. We walked through a small town near the statue and you could just sense the hopelessness. All of us went back to the bus very humble.

This afternoon we plan on meeting up with some English speaking students. We are then going to the market (YAY!) where they can translate for us. Shopping has been fun so far, but in my opinion we haven't done enough! Phillip would like to say hi to his mom.

In case you didn't know, we are using James 1 as our passage for this trip. Daniel, Adam, Tom and Dale are taking turns teaching us during devotions. We have seen where we have not reacted well to different trials on this trip and are trying to count all things as blessings.

We have yet to see any monkeys although there are catepillars and moths in excess. Trust me Pastor, we are keeping a close watch for any sightings. Phillip would like to tell his mom that he still is having fun.

That's all for now. Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Leader Commentary: The group has did an excellent job today at the American English school. I think it's safe to say that everyone stepped a bit out of there comfort zone today! Continue to pray for us, and especially for Adam as he preaches tonight. ~Daniel

P.S. Still no monkeys.
