Construction and VBS Day 2!

Hey friends of mine,


I am excited to find a few minutes to sit down and tell you how today went. I'm currently fighting my ADD with all my sweet teamates around me. For those of you who know me, that might gilve you a good laugh :-).


Today was a great day. It was our second day doing constuction and VBS. At the constuction site I went to, we were able to almost finish one entire wall. I have personally found it so rewarding to work so hard for something I know will one day become the home of a wonderful guatemalan family. I think each of us sensed the beauty He bestows in those who serve him. It reminds me of a verse Juandi shared today:

"How Beautiful are the Feet of those who bring good news, proclaim peace, bring glad tidings of good things, proclaim salvation, and proclaim to Zion, "Your God reigns!"

Each and every one of you are included in this group. You are beautiful to Him regardless of whether or not you choose to serve Him. However, choosing to serve Him is choosing to embrace who He says you already are. Our team is so thankful that you have chosen to do just that. I assure you that He is working here!

We continued doing VBS today. However, we went to a different area and were able to share His love with a different group of kids. It was both rewarding and beautiful to see their faces and hear them praising our God!
Please continue to pray for us!

Pray for Haley. She seems to be having the same stomch issues that Robby and Matt had. The guys are feeling much better, but please pray for Haley. She has been such an awesome asset to our team and I know for sure God is going to continue to use her.

Pray for tomorrow. It will be our last day of VBS with our last group of kids. Pray that we would continue to learn how to express the love of Christ though our actions.
And lastly, something has been pressing my heart. I am certain that God wants to use the prayers of people our team may not be expecting to pray. He already has. Pray that those who have been crippled by fear, pain or pride would be lifted from their burdens that they may petition to the One who listen, the one who loves, the one who cares...
Can't wait to see yall in a few days!

Love,

Michelle
