We're getting pretty handy in the kitchen. Our goal to eat healthy and cook everything ourselves has been accomplished so far. With a menu that includes red pepper parmesan tilapia and spaghetti squash, we've set the bar high and continue to impress ourselves.
We've already met many amazing people who have shared about their experiences on the mission field. They have shown us the value of working as a team and trusting in the Lord for his provision. The snake stories were a little disconcerting though...
On Thursdays we serve at New Hope and Project Share, both organizations that hand out food to the underprivileged. We enjoyed last Thursday so much, we can't wait to go back.
On Friday we had our first cross-cultural experience: we worked under the direction of Katya, a stern little Russian woman. We now turn down rooms like pros.
Saturday was an adventure! The team went to the Loyd's farm for lessons from Eryca and team building activities. Each of us was given a different disability and then we were turned loose to achieve a list of objectives. We all learned the value of team work. We also had time to ourselves to talk with God. He's opening our hearts to Him and each other.
We are enjoying our time as we learn more and more, but we must also ask that you pray for us. *Brynne has become ill with a fever, sore throat, and congestion. Please pray for her speedy recovery.
*Pray that the rest of the team remains healthy.
*Pray that the team remains in this "honeymoon" stage. We desire to remain this close and to grow closer.
