1st Work Day

Everyone slept well last night. After breakfast we headed to Larco Church where we cleard land for the new sanctuary. It was a day of shovels. pick axes, sledge hammers, buckets, dirt, rock, wheel barrows. The team did very well. We had a massive lunch and then went back to work for about an hour. This afternoon we played soccer with a medical team and some of the Larco youth group. Relationally speaking we are on our way - learning names, working and playing with some of the church members. So, the beginning of the trip has been great. Please continue to pray for us - that we would remember names and look for ways to serve.

The team has connected very well with each other and everyone is doing very well.
