As we get closer to the end of our trip our schedule has slowed down a little bit. We got back from our trip to the reserve on Thursday afternoon and we spent the rest of our afternoon unpacking and then playing soccer and basketball with the students and staff. The team has really enjoyed having the opportunity to play with them every day and always rush off as soon as there is free time. Friday we spent the morning cleaning our dorms and bathrooms and then had some free time before lunch. We spent the afternoon shopping at a market where the team got the last of their souvenirs and gifts. The knives were a big hit with most of the team! After the market, we had dinner at a nearby pizza place and also got some ice cream. Our last stop for the day was an outlook to the ocean where we enjoyed watching the sun set on the water. There was a Ferris wheel across the street, and some of the team members got the opportunity to ride on it; there was a lot of screaming and laughing! We then came back to the base and had popcorn while we did our evening devotion time. It was a really fun and memorable day for our team. Saturday we got to help do some jobs around the base like setting up tents for the Boot Camp, picking up trash, and helping take care of the chickens. The team then had some free time before sharing a time of Bible study to make up for the one missed on Friday. Mr. Zach led the Bible study and did a great job leading the team through the different types of people in Proverbs. Sunday morning we returned to the First Love Church which we attended last week. The team had a chance to perform a drama and then they got to demonstrate a dance to the song Praise which the whole congregation participated in. Everyone had so much fun, and it was a cool to be praising the Lord together. Next week, we plan to visit three more of the circuits on Monday and Wednesday. Tuesday and Thursday we will spend cleaning and packing as we prepare for our departure. We are so thankful for the time that we have gotten to spend here in Madagascar. It has been such a blessing to be able to help here at the base in any way that we have been needed.
Thank you all for your prayers!
Hey y'all! Our time in Madagascar is almost up, and the Lord is still working as much as ever. We have one more week of circuits and kids ministry, and I can't wait to see what the Lord does. It has been so powerful seeing how the Lord can use people for His kingdom. I'm so blessed to be here, and I can't wait to be back. -Jonah M.
We're on our last week in country! This trip has been so incredible in so many ways and I have truly felt the Lord present in our team and on the base. The circuits are the best, playing and loving on the kids has been so moving. I can't wait for more circuits this week and to see how the Lord uses our team in these last few days! -Sela Tucker
Our time in Madagascar is almost done. The circuits have been good for everyone as they grow in Christ. We lost the keys to the truck and we used it as a way to pray with the kids and we taught them God will answer prayers. -Cavan J.
Hi, my name is Kaden! Being here in Madagascar has been great for me physically and spiritually. Going to the circuits has been fun and spiritual for all the kids we're meeting. Our time here in Madagascar is sadly coming to an end, but I am just so thankful to have come on this trip. -Kaiden M.
Hello, Y'all. We just got back from church, and I will be getting a haircut in three hours. I'm sad that the trip is almost over, but I'm excited to get back home. -Luke M.

Hello family and friends! We had an incredible time during the past week. We had the privilege of going out to multiple Sunday schools, spending time at the beach, shopping with the team, going to a lemur sanctuary, and getting the property ready for boot camp. Thank you for all of your prayers and support. We are all so excited to come back and share what God has done here in Madagascar!! -Zachary W.
