West Park team!

A team from West Park United Methodist Church came to visit us from the 15th to the 20th here in Haiti! While they were here we did a VBS in the local church, and they helped us (A LOT) with getting the seminary ready for the new school year!

We worked in the garden. . .

We tilled the garden. . .

Lily helped too!!!

And we weeded it. . .

We also planted flower and vegetable seeds in smaller pots. . .

On the 18th and 19th we did a VBS at Sakanvil church. . .

We had 200 kids on just the first day!

Of course there were games. . .

These next couple pictures are of Casey Burke and I teaching the kids "London Bridge" in Creole!

At one point it was just mass chaos. . .

Then eventually it got straightened out. . .

Getting ready for Duck, Duck, Goose!

Casey and Lily!

Playing with the parachute. . .

Then there were crafts. . .

We made fish, and rainbows showing how God keeps his promises. . .

Kelsey helping the little ones. . .

Leme drawing with the kids. . .

And Lily helping me regulate the crayons. . .!

Nate and Kellie taught the Bible lessons while Junior translated!

(Only half of my body is visible here. . . !)

Besides the VBS and the garden, the team also cleaned the men's dorm, the administration building, the library, and the chapel in preparation for the new school year!!!

We swept, mopped, dusted, wiped the walls, and vacuumed the pews in the chapel!

Four members of the team (and me!) bathed Pepper and Boone, because, well there is only one reason to give a dog a bath. . .!

 Always make sure you have a nice n' clean chin!

The team also wanted to try some coconuts so. . .

 Dad taught the guys on the team how to cut open coconuts with a machete!

Coconuts for everyone!

Overall. . .

It. Was. Awesome.

Thanks SO much West Park for sending this team!

Oh, and, Jessie says "Hi"!

Stay tuned!
