Day 2

Today was a wonderful amazing day. We had worship on the beach this morning at 7:30 and then we had another great breakfast. At 8:30 we left for Hannah's Hope Orphanage, which is the place we are helping build. I worked all day digging trenches to bury water lines to supply the orphanage. We had lunch on site today and some of the ladys made us sandwiches and chips and cookies. Then we went back to work and some people got to go work at the VBS. We also got to visist the oprphanage across the street from the one we are working on and it was just a sweet sweet moment to be sitting with the kids and see the smiles on there face for us coming to visit. I cant wait until tommorrow to do it all again and cant wait for my chance to work the VBS.

I love you all so much,
Jacob

Worship on the beach early in the morning. WOW! Sounds so wonderful. Seeing the children's smiles, hearing them sing about Jesus. I can't wait to hear all of what you guys are experiencing.

Donnie told me the sun was very hard on all of you today. I am praying that the Lord will shade you and strengthen you. (God caused a plant to grow overnight to shade Jonah. I can't wait to hear how he shades you guys.)
love... mary ann

Jacob, I am so proud of you and can't wait to hear how God has used your hands, your feet, your smile, your laugh, and your sweet, servant's heart. Hope you can feel the prayers. We love you.
