God's Blessings Continue

     The morning started early at 7am with devotions led by Paul from various verses on hope and trusting God.  Breakfast was eggs, ham and the ever-present local selection of pineapple, banana, mango and melon.
     Today was construction day. This meant pouring concrete for a new church floor. This was a good-sized pour as the dimensions were 20'x60'. Good Dominican help along with the muscles of Paul, Duane, Tom, Chloe, Phil and Jamie allowed them to finish all but the entrance.
    During the construction Shawn, Kris, Jim and Katrina canvassed the area witnessing. Many tracks were passed out, sick people prayed over and blessings given in the name of Jesus. A number of "God moments" took place. Lunch was the standard DR meal of chicken with beans and rice at the construction site.
     After supper the team split up. Dan, Duane, Kris, Jamie, Phil and Katrina went to the Dancing Church and some of the team shared. Shawn, Paul, Tom and Chloe showed the Jesus film in a nearby village. About 100 people were in attendance and Shawn gave the message. Many prayers and worship afterwards. There's nothing like parking a bus across an intersection and giving the saving message of Jesus for 2 hours!
     Upon returning to the house a debrief was done and the team was excused for the evening by 11:30.
     Except for some tiredness, minor sunburn and Paul's voice the team continues to be in good health. We do need continued prayer, however, as spiritual warfare against the team is real and being felt. We are doing good and someone doesn't like it. Look to the facebook page for pics.

Jesus te ama
