This morning started with a bowl of cereal then off to church at the First Baptist Church of West End. That is where Elmer and Andrea attend as Elmer’s dad is the Pastor (they call him Pastor Bush). We made it to Sunday school and stayed for worship. What a great time and what beautiful people. They truly love the Lord and let their voices be heard during worship. It is an English speaking church and they were very welcoming to us. We had to leave church a little early to head to the airport where we turned in our rental car. We chose to do it today because Elmer was headed to the airport to pick up a team of 12 from Barbers Hill, Texas that came in around 12:30 pm. We grabbed a snack at the airport and then caught a ride with Elmer back to the room. As the new team began to move in, they asked us if we would mind moving to the Master suite upstairs. It’s beautiful with our own bathroom and we have a large porch out our room looking out over the ocean. We told them that we were sure we could manageJ That evening we made the 20 minute walk to West Bay where they were having a fund raiser down on the beach for the HIV clinic. They had some activities such as a crab race and a guy do a fire dance performance. We had a nice dinner at a restaurant called Beacher’s. When we were done, we had Lindsey the PR guy from the restaurant call us a cab. We could have walked back, but it was dark and we are trying to be cautious until we know the do’s and don’ts. The cab driver was a friend of his that runs a taxi service, his name is Wilson. He brought us back to Casa Isabella after a quick stop for milk. Back at the house we took a walk out on the pier where we stumbled upon 2 brothers down on the pier fishing. They were using a very common method of fishing with a line on a wooden spool – John called it a hand line. They would throw their line out in the water by hand letting the string spool off of the piece of wood as the hook and bait flew through the air. Tomorrow we plan to go with the team to Pandy Town which is near Oak Ridge. We are visiting a school there. We are very interested in observing how activities for teams are organized and what a typical service day would look like.
