Belize it!

Well I finally made it to the computer to fill you all in on whats going on here in Belize. We arrived here safe and really kind of easy. Customs went really well and all of our flights and the bus ride were all smooth.

On Friday we got a really good start on the roof and more kids than we could imagine showed up for some high energy ministry. It only rained once and we all took cover for about 5-10 minutes and then it was game on after that.

Saturday we got a little earlier start back at the church working on the roof, we looked like a well oiled machine. We had two teams running all day and we are ahead of the initial plans. We have all the rafters up (that we hand built) and most of the bracing up as well. Not only is the roof coming along very fast and with few mistakes, but the ministry with the families around the church are coming along too.

I guess that catches you up for now so we will try to get some photos up on here soon. Until then pray for opportunities to serve and share the gospel. We love you guys and will see you Thur. night.
