Our first Day at the School :)

We had a wonderful day Friday! We went to the school and presented a AY (Adventist Youth) program. It was so much fun! All 150 kids at the school came out of their tiny classrooms with their chairs on their heads and lined up in a group so that we could share with them. Lindsey and her group from Andrews University were here ahead of us by two days. They started the programing and we came in a long side and continued it. Geddy and Drew presented the music at the beginning with the team of singers....Sydney, Dee Dee, Alijah, Sherry, Michael, Erica. After word we listened to a puppet show with Dee Dee as the arms for Anneli from Andrews, and Alijah as the arms. They shared how we need to use our eyes to see how God shows his love for us!

We heard from the Belizian kids as they shared their special songs. Each class got up to share.
Rob from Andrews shared the message....it was so much fun! Our kids mingling with them was such a joy to see. They played soccer together, Dee Dee and Alijah sat in class with the Standard 6 grade enjoying their English class.

We began painting the outside of the school buildings...all three in the afternoon. Lunch came to us from Alan and we were so glad to see him! The sun came out but not until we prayed for the rain to stay away! Another prayer answered. We had a full day of work without the rain to spoil it.

I will be posting pictures as I can...enjoy and thanks again for your thoughtful prayers for safety and for the Holy Spirit to use us as we serve here in Belize :)
