so my team and i are doing this project call mission 70. Our goal is to go out into the streets, while preaching and singing and dancing, telling others about jesus. The church that is at la quinta wants to have 70 people come and be members of this church. we are going to be starting that on wednesday. today we did manual labor around where we live! God is amazing in everything he has done so far. he has blessed me with amazing teammates. The goal of this project is to have people realize that jesus is the way!

Of course it was in Spanish, but they were song I’d heard and grown up to. It was a little calming to be able to at least...

It felt like the last two days of camp (Sunday and Monday) really felt like they went by quickly, it felt like it was time for us to go.  We went to seminars for most of the day on Sunday.  We talked about ways to talk and share our testimonies and give a short sermon.  Then we talked about our countries and what will be some things to expect there.  That night we all got together to pray for each other.  It was a great experience.  Then on Monday we finished our paintings and had some time to journal and set up our...
