Hey Everybody, Holly speaking!!! We are in the beginning of the 3rd week out here in Sells, AZ. Even though we are tired and getting a little delirious now, we are still pushing hard. This week we are in 5 villages doing VBS in the mornings: San Pedro, Santa Rosa, Covered Wells, Guvo, and Pia Oik. The teams that are out here had an over all great response on the first day in the villages. When we did debriefing tonight many of the team members were were so excited to talk about their initial thoughts and feelings about the day and also how excited they were to be out here and working in the desert. Our initial plans were to do block parties every night this week. Our plans have changed and we're still going strong to continue to put up the ramada beside the basketball court at the church. This is our first priority to get done. If this happens, then possibly at the end of the week we might have a couple of block parties. That all depends on what God has in mind. The afternoons are hot, but God has given us the strength to keep going. The rains are also starting to come in and I believe there is most likely going to be a storm tonight. There is nothing like experiencing a cool rain in the desert!
