Dear family and friends,

Here are some adventures we had this past week. I just finished ten days in the village and enjoyed the time to think about my life, it was good to see the people we had met again and spend time getting to know them better. I had fun carrying water from the tap to people’s houses, and harvesting rice by hand-I didn’t know all the work it takes to make rice.

Then we had team time-it was good to be back together and share about the last ten days together, reading the Word together, praying together, worshiping together. It was a good time of fellowship. You can learn so much from each other.

One morning we had pancakes-a great way to start the day. Later that day we walked to a place with lots of tourist shops-like a town, and had some things to do. The 1^st was to sell shane’s speakers, we went to couple of stores and they said to much money we were asking. So us three were walking down the sidewalk and shane saw some young guys and asked if they want speakers and he sold them, and shane got the price he wanted, what a blessing.

Then us guys went to a café-it was nice to talk and eat a chocolate chip cookie and a mango smoothie. Then in the evening we had a house fellowship, I enjoy listening to locals signing. Another night some of us watched the Passion of the Christ, it is an awesome movie-a good reminder of all He did for us.

One day we had to renew our visas, so we went to the place around 8:30 and they don’t open till 10, there was a couple there from Australia, it was so much fun talking with him about life and what he believes. Then as a team went somewhere to eat for lunch-had Chinese, then after 1pm got our passports. Us guys decided to go see a movie, it took us awhile to find the cinema-had to ask lots of people on the way, found the place but then had to go to another one. We found it and watched Transformers 2-an awesome movie. When you watch a movie in another country-it makes you feel like you are in another world, then you go outside and reality comes back.

Another day we went into the same town and went to a music concert-with rock music from believers. It is awesome to see how good clean music bands are rising here-to help young people. Here is how we celebrated july 4^th, we were burning the trash, and decided to put in an aerosol can into the fire-it was an amazing fire and sound. This made our july 4^th awesome, and it brought back lots of memories of the past.

I hope you got a glimpse of some of the adventures we had this week. Here are some things to keep in mind as you think of us.
