It is now day three at Boot Camp and things are well underway. The team members have all arrived safely and have settled into life here in Florida. On arrival day, all the kids were excited to meet one another and as soon as their team members would arrive in the Big Top, they would play games with each other to get to know one another. There have been a few storms the last couple of days, but it makes the evenings cooler and so far all of the team members have reported that their tents are still nice and dry (Praise the Lord!).

We are well into the first week of Boot Camp and all the kids are thriving. It has been a little bit tough trying to keep dry here in Florida because it has been raining every day since the kids arrived. However, we can still say that everyone has a dry tent, praise the Lord!

We are finishing week one and it is good to have the end in sight. All the kids can't believe that they are halfway done with Boot Camp and the idea of being in Ecuador in a week is exciting.

Today marks the last day of official Boot Camp classes and training as the next two will be in preparation for Commissioning and Pack Out day. There is an undeniable excitement in the air as the team overcame the midweek tiredness. A

The team, as well as our baggage, arrived safely to our destination after a smooth trip. The people here welcomed us with open arms and are as happy to see us as we are to see them.

Now that we have been in Ecuador for a couple of days the team is really getting into the routine of life. We have been working on the property we are staying at by weeding and tearing down grassy areas that the natives are gonna use for a potential work site.

There are exciting opportunities for work and evangelism both this week and the next that everyone is looking forward to. God bless!

All is well here in Puerto Cayo, Ecuador! This past Saturday was a wonderful day, we were able to officially begin our evangelism in the town of Puerto Cayo.

"God is doing great things here in Ecuador. I am having a lot of fun working, evangelizing, hanging out with friends, and eating muchos helados! I miss y'all but I will see you soon." -Savannah B.

We have had an incredibly eventful weekend. Our hosts threw us a big going away party and we celebrated our time here with around 80 kids from Manta and Pacoche.

We are excited to know that we will see you all in a little over a week! Today is packout day and we are all full of anticipation for the trip to Quito that awaits us tomorrow.
