We head out tomorrow evening from Houston to travel down to San Salvador where we will be meeting up with our team from Immanuel Bible Church out of the Washington D.C. area. We are looking forward to serving together as we have two full weeks of many activities planned. The first week we will be working in Sonsonate not far from San Salvador with a deaf school there. Each day we will be helping them repaint the school and work on a playground for the younger children. We had the opportunity to visit this school last fall and it was a real blessing for us to meet these incredible young people and the staff there. This time we will be staying longer and getting to know them and their parents better as well as the staff. On Saturday we will be flying over the trees in El Salvador doing a little canopy trip, not sure about all of this but we will be game for it. Of course Sunday will be church and some other activities. Then the 2nd week we will be going to various rural and public schools in the area, as well as a Christian deaf school that we have visited many times over the years. We will also visit some very poor areas and distribute food, work with the children in these areas as well as their parents. We will also work with some elder people at a retirement home, we have not done this in the past so this should be fun. We will also be visiting the school near the volcano and also an orphanage, so you can see we will be very busy.
Please pray for our team as we minister to the folks there and also that we will be open to hear and see God in many different ways ourselves. Also pray for health and unity with the team members. We are all ready to catch our planes and head down tomorrow.
Thanks for thinking of us during these two weeks and keeping us in your prayers. Keep checking back on the blog for daily updates.
God bless.
