Day 3

Another successful day for VBS. The lesson today was Noah, and when it came time for the flood, the team threw water ballons at the kids! Took them by complete surprise, and I think they didn't know how to react at first, but then they loved it.

As part of the project for this year, we bought ceiling fans for the church and kitchen. They really are not needed in the sleeping rooms because it does get cool at night. However, we learned that the church uses those rooms for Sunday School, so fans in those rooms may be a consideration for next year.

I promised to tell you about the "dancing." Verbo church does not believe in dancing per se, however, once a week, usually on Friday nights, they have a service of -- not sure what to call it -- dancing in the spirit for lack of a better term. They play praise music REALLY LOUD, and then as the spirit moves, so do the church members. We were there for this service last year and joined in. But I mean, it keeps up for at least an hour or more, and have I mentioned that it's HOT in Nicaragua? So ... the ceiling fans will be most welcome.

One more day of VBS to go! This week really has been flying by.
