We are finally getting a little bit of a schedule going and settling in. The first week we met so many people and learned a lot about the town and the cultures here. It has been a lot to take in, overwhelming at times. I finally feel like I am treading water.
During the week we have 4 skate sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Tuesdays' are staff meeting and the kid's skate session/Mom's Cafe. Thursdays', we have decided are general maintenance work days. Josh mounted two new ceiling fans and wired them to the panel...thank you Marshall. Sunday nights have been really neat too, we have a pot luck dinner and then a message. This week I started working with the 7-11 year olds on Sunday School. We are starting a study of the Fruit of the Spirit. I am really enjoying that. Josh is loving getting to know the kids at the skate park. He says that they are really good. The kids here are all so brave. Even the 4 year olds surf and skate!
This week we are helping a lady from Minnesota out with a mini VBS.
We are having fun meeting people and building relationships. We have been learning so much. Some of it the hard way ;-) But Barrett and Amy and their girls have been a huge blessing showing us the ropes of the culture.
Prayer Request:
-> For stamina in the heat
-> Josh to feel 100% (he has been having an upper respiratory thing)
