We were so happy to see our friends Chuck and Tia Laird and to deliver many of the Christ Covenant donation items to them. Worship service was great! We sang in English and in Spanish and the pastor taught with a translator assisting him. A little newborn baby girl was dedicated to Christ by her parents too. I tried to upload a video of this but we are having some difficulty- Trav is helping me figure that out and I think we will be able to add it later.

Travis will go with Chuck and one of their assistants tomorrow to purchase the tools from the Ace Hardware store. They are so happy for the opportunity it will provide. Some of the men already have projects in place to start on. Christ Covenant is actively putting these folks to work with the gift of the tools. How amazing!

Ella is meeting with the worship leader on Wednesday to practice with the keyboard. They have never had a keyboardist/piano player and are very excited.They currently have 2 guitarists and a bongo drum player.

The island is very beautiful this time of year. We have seen large iguanas, monkey lala lizards, hummingbirds and fruit bats. God’s creation on full display!

Thanks to all for the prayers for our travels! We felt them. It went much smoother than expected! Love to all of you!
