We are in Jamaica

We arrived safe and sound in Jamaica. We have joined up with other students from North Carolina and are already hanging out with students, playing games, and experiencing a new culture. And everyone is TIRED! The real work starts tomorrow and there is much to be done.

1. Finishing footers for a new building...footers are 6 feet deep at least.
2. Mixing concrete for floors in another building.
3. Painting rooms.
4. Serving kids at an orphanage.
5. VBS program for kids in the community.

Today we celebrated Cody's birthday...and Hannah getting her luggage in 8 hours late.



Please pray for rest for everyone tonight. We all need it. Thanks so much.
