Marcia arrived safely, minus one bag, but it came two days later. She has been busy with staff training this week. God has provided some good deals for VBS and things are coming together. They are working together well as a team. Marcia is in charge of crafts for the VBS week. The theme is the Days of Creation. It was a bit overwhelming at first but she has had time to organize and plan and feels good about it. Up until last Saturday they were experiencing a drought and with the majority of people on cachement, it was looking very serious. They estimated only 18 days of water remaining for the county. Well, this week it has rained and rained. Marcia had a great practice game of paintball with the leaders in preparation for camp, IN THE RAIN. At least it is warm!
A number of details need to come together yet for camp. They need a speaker for the first week. The speaker originally planned backed out. Pray for the children to be open and accepting of them as white counselors. There can be difficulty between cultures (white vs. Hawaiian) Pray that the counselors will be wise and not unnecessarily offensive. This Sunday night they will be sharing testimonies and special music at a local church.
