Thanks for checking in again! We're excited to be able to share our trip with you. Today the weather was beautiful and our crews all spent the day working outside. And we got a surprise! The local news was doing a story on volunteer organizations in the area and so they came and filmed our painting crew. We will be sending out the web address when we arrive home so that you can watch.

Right now our power is out because of a car accident up the road that hit a power line. It should be fixed by morning, but fortye time being we are making use of flashlights. It's amazing how many stars you can see when there isn't a light on for miles.

It's hard to believe that we are already half way through our trip. We would love prayer for continued energy and enthusiasm. I would also ask that you pray for the continued change within students' hearts. We are seeing some walls break down and growth in our students and I would love it if the folks back home kept praying for that to occur in big ways.
