We have just had dinner at the hotel and are about to start our first team debriefing. We have made it here safely. A few of the bags are still in Toronto but we are told that we will be receiving them Mnday. Tim and I do not have our personal bags. We are begging and borrowing clothes from other team members to tie us over until Monday. We are going to San Felipe tomorrow to visit the 7 families we are going to build the homes for. I am so excited to be returning to a place I love. Not because of the place but because of the amazing people who live there.
Wow what a team God has put together for this trip. So excited to see the lives that will be changed this week. Not just the lives of the amazing people of El Salvador but the lives of the team members. There is no one here by mistake. God has chosen each one to gloify His name through their amazing gifts and talents. Each one has been handpicked. May His name be glorified this week. And people come to know Him as their Savior.

Keep praying for us.

  2. I thought about the team all day. As you drove away this morning, I had an overwhelming yearning to be with you. We prayed for you at our Board Retreat today and I will commit to praying everyday while you are there.

  3. Thinking and praying for you,Valerie and the team. The memory verse for my Sunday School class today is ,"There are different kinds of gifts.But they are all given by the same Spirit."I Cor.12:4. Praise God that each of you were brought together with different gifts to be used for His glory.
