Casa de Jurka

Hola!

Our team has arrived at the home of Peter and Tyanne Jurka. I found that I could get a weak wireless signal if I stand on my head at a 45 degree angle.

They have welcomed us into the most beautiful home. We are staying in a building that will house the teachers very soon. It has five bedrooms so we have transitioned from having nine girls in one room to having 2-3 in each room. Our boys remain together in the same room.

Yesterday, we finished off VBS in the morning and had the most amazing experience. Over 50 children accepted Jesus into their hearts! You could just see the joy on their faces as they prayed and interacted with us. I'm going to see if I can get someone from our team to write a blog entry about their experience. We were all in tears as we realized just how real some of the pain these children have gone through and what the Lord has brought them out of.

Continue to pray for us as a team that the Lord gives us strength and that we continue to be united and show love for each other and the people we interact with. Thank you so much for your comments!
