Wow what a day, you never know what we will be doing from day to day but today was a real blinger. We were back to the day care building for some fun in the sun, not to work on our sun tans but to work on the jungle that had grown up all around the place. My job was to run the weed wacker, some old machine they found in the back room. The first thing you do is get an old hose and suck gas out out of the truck and into a plastic water bottle and gas her up and try to start the antique, are we having fun yet? The girls spent the morning moving rocks to build a driveway, Keith ran the wheel barrow and Lionel played he man attacking a fifty foot long bush on the side of a wall. No big crazed opposums or poison sewer frogs today but I was always on the lookout for something to jump or crawl out of the bush. We got lucky and finished the job. Back on the bus for that great twenty minute ride back to the hotel for a shower only to turn around to get back on the bus to go back to the church to meet the van to go get food at Vallarta Advertures. We bagged up all the leftover food and went to feed the kids. Have you ever taken a van ride in a small mini van with eight people sitting on kindergarden chairs with ten garbage bags full of bread, four trays of sweet rolls, two five gallon bottles of water two eight foot folding tables and three ten pound bags of oranges? The whole time you are bagging bread and holding on for your life. We finished up our day at the Happy Ant taco stand. Tomorrow is another adventure.
Today's blogger was Scott Bradley...he is our resident practical joker...watch out Scott the team is plotting to get you back.
A few thoughts from Ann...
Tonight I was asked to speak at the church for their evening service. I spoke on the idea that we all have a purpose and that we need to be busy preparing our lives so that when defining moments arrive we are ready to go forward fullfilling that those purposes. After the meeting I was asked to pray for many of the ladies who were wanting God to reveal his pusposes for thier lives and I talked with a number of ladies who told me the messages was a direct confirmation to what the Lord was speaking to them about. It was a great time. Now on to tomorrow's mystery job.

Hi Hon: So thankful to hear that you have been used in such a way. These women's lives will never be the same and God's kimgdom will increase. Love you much, you know who!
Great hearing all the things that God is doing through each one of you. May He continue to keep you all safe, and get you back to the USA safely on your airplane. We all know that the Leader has issues in that department, but God is bigger than FEAR! May his love be spread more and more through each of you!!!
