Here we are safely installed in country. We had our first day with the kids this morning. Everything went very well! There is some fear locally about Americans bringing a virus, and fears have been heightened  (other Americans have infected 2 kids and news has spread). Because of this fear, fewer kids than anticipated have joined the camps. Some parents believed that camp was canceled – so we hope to have increased enrollment tomorrow.

Please pray for increase in kids coming to camp – fears to be alleviated. Pray that God brings whom He would bring. Also pray for team health – there’s been some mild sickness spreading throughout the team.

Pray that we’d be unified and unwavering in our mission and focus.

We love you and are grateful for your prayers and support.
