What a day. We left the mission house at 6:40 for worship at 7AM. Worship lasted from 7-8:20. I did not understand a word spoken, but the Spirit of God was evident.

After returning to change into more casual clothes we drove to ANTIGUA for shoppinig and lunch. Following that we loaded a pickup truck with supplies of food, clothes and toys. We drove to a remote location an hour away that is so very hard to describe. We went from poor to pooer to poorest. When we arrived the villagers were waiting. Each family had been given a ticket to receive a food bag. We set up an assembly line much like our Brown Bag Ministry through the Food Bank in Auburn. 644 people came through the line. One family had 13 children. Several with 6 or 8. After receiving the food each child was given clothes and a toy. Then all were given toothpaste and a brush. So sad, yet very rewarding.

Tomorrow we will divide into 2 locations. 1 doing medical missions, the other building houses. More later,

Blessings,
Pastor Bob
