Camping Trip

The camping trip was great! We all arrived at Yellowstone Lake State park in Blanchardville last weekend for a weekend of fellowship and team building. The team building started as we scrambled to get the 20 people who could make it there and fed! But we pulled it together and had a great time. Most of the weekend centered around the fire and the grill. The team played the bean bag yard game a ton! In fact with head lamps you can even play in the dark! Saturday night we gathered around to share how God has been providing for our team, and gave him praises for what he is doing in Juarez ahead of us. We looked at several passages in scripture to know God's heart for the poor, and reflected on our own hearts for the poor. We centered our thoughts on God and prayed that he would lead us, and that we would be transformed through the process. We ended the night in worship under the stars. It was great to have everybody together to just relax and get to know each other better. Now with only a few weeks until we go, we left the trip refreshed and ready to gear down for the final countdown! Please be in prayer for us as we make final preparations for our departure in just a few weeks. Pray that God would soften our hearts, and fill us with love and compassion for the people of Juarez. We thank you for your prayers and support.
