Graveyard Shift

Monday morning marks the beginning of our ministry and service projects! We started off the morning by working in the cemetery, cleaning up garbage and dead plants and leaves. It was hard but meaningful work!
Food Distribution 
by Nicole Seymour | July 25, 2016 9:18 PM
This morning we went into the nearest town to buy supplies for groceries to deliver to families in Caledonia that are in need. We spent the evening packing the food: flour, sugar, rice, beans, etc. to deliver on Wednesday morning!
Flour Girls 
by Nicole Seymour | July 25, 2016 9:20 PM
A few of the girls were rock stars and packed the flour (a very hazardous job if you don't want to end up covered head to toe!) Thanks Lexi and Savannah! Our bus driver Eustace also volunteered to help tie the bags.
Men's Ministry 
by Nicole Seymour | July 25, 2016 9:26 PM
The men from the community gathered at the church for a bible study led by the men of our group. Tomorrow we will have a bible study service for women. It is so incredible to see God minister and work in the lives of the men in Caledonia!
VBS Day 1

This is what it looks like when 70 kids are worshiping God together! The first day of VBS was a huge success. The kids didn't want to go home, and are so excited to come back on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Mayan Temple Run

This morning our team had their mid-week rec. we went and visited the temples at Lamanai. The team had an incredible time climbing up the beautiful structures and taking in the gorgeous views.
Children, Children Everywhere!

Vacation bible school day two was a success! The children multiplied in number but we loved it! The team played games, sang songs, and taught Binle stories to the tiny humans.
Breaking Bread
by Sally Keckeisen | July 26, 2016 8:43 PM
Tonight we broke bread and broke barriers with the loca people. Many of Jesus' big moments happened around the table and many of our big moments this week up to now have happened around the table as well. It was a super sweet experience to eat with our friends here in Caledonia.
Ladies Night
by Sally Keckeisen | July 26, 2016 8:56 PM
Women's ministry is took place tonight. Jennifer did a fantastic job leading the women during Bible study and encouraging them along the way. Each member of the team was an intricate part of the night; whether it was the men hanging out with the other men and children outside the church or the women having deep conversations within the church. It was a wonderful and successful night.

It was very meaningful to visit the clinic in Caledonia that the groups visited last summer. We left a large trunk of medications and supplies for the staff there.
