happy fourth of july

hey frienders...happy fourth! we are gearing up for a big weekend. tonight and tomorrow there is a marriage conference here in constanza and we might be helping with childcare and then tomorrow a team is coming from sarahs church. then on sunday, we have church and then were going to the waterfalls! im so excited. things in the summer school program are going really well. i cant believe that today marks the end of the second week of teaching. it is flying by. we are also getting to know the kids a lot better and its really exciting to see changes in some of them. one girl in particular was struggling at the beginning, but her whole spirit has changed. now, she is very affectionate, smiling, and has a peace about her that we didnt see two weeks ago. the Lord is changing all of us, isnt he? a few prayer requests. this weekend the name of the game will be flexibility. pray that the Lord would wipe away our selfishness and make us into servants willing to do whatever. no task is to big or too small. also pray that we would continue to be an encouragement to the people we work with and that we will reflect christ.
