This morning we got a slightly earlier start because of the rain forecasted. The students were great -as they had a short night and showed great attitudes. We made our way to the school where we have been working to finish up the projects that had been started. God was gracious and held off the rain for a bit longer than what was predicted. Then, it only rained for an hour or so, so we were able to do all we needed to.
The principal of the school stopped by and was extremely impressed by the amount of work that we had done. He even had pizza sent over for us for lunch! We were also able to work alongside another Irish woman who is part of the Becker's church.
I should also point out, that a couple of our students, each day, have been spending time "minding" the Becker children and doing work around their house while the children rest. These girls have been jumping right in to serve Scott and Rebekah in all sorts of practical ways. One of the ways the girls served today, was by working on some food for our 4th of July picnic tonight.
Scott was the griller and everyone else pitched in to pull together a delightful dinner. After dinner and clean-up, we broke into small teams and played a (sort-of) traditional pub quiz. These quizzes are trivia from all types of categories. It was quite fun, and the "Irish Cream Dream Team" took home the prize.
Another thing I should mention is that Joanne, a GBIM intern has been spending a lot of time with our team. You may see her in some of our photos. Our students have enjoyed getting to know her and hearing her story as someone who is a few years ahead of them in life.
I left my camera a the Becker's house - so no photos just yet for today! Sorry!
