Hey All
Thank you for watching this blog. Wifi is still a bit sparse, but we are finding more signals available.
So far the weather has been quite warm, like Seattle has been the past few days. Today has been overcast and cooler than the weekend. But the scenery in Ahousaht hasn't changed and neither have the people, who are still warm and welcoming.
We had a meeting with the group of leaders and high school kids coming from Ahousaht down to Federal Way in August. The families and youth were upbeat and excited about this adventure that awaits them. This is the first time that anyone has sent a group of high school youth from Ahousaht on a cultural exchange this far away. It should be a great time for everyone involved, having the kids not only in the big city, but also experiencing the larger youth culture that we have.
The first day of VBS went quite smooth. We had 85 kids, which is a large portion of the kids this age here in Ahousaht. The kids were excited for games, fun, snacks, and learning about Jesus. We felt it was a very good showing and are expecting more kids for the next few days to show up as word gets around we are having "kids club" throughout the week!

Wow, 85 kids! Praise God! I'm so happy to hear that things have started well.
ReplyDeleteTell our girls that we miss them but are so excited to hear about all of their experiences and friendships they've made! :-)
Love this update Alan! Sounds like you are all having an amazing opportunity to be used of God so far. The connections being made will definitely bring forth good fruit. Things have cooled down here as well today. Finally a relief from the heat. Praying for you and the whole team.
