I just received an email from Sherri. She's having trouble getting on AFF.
From Sherri:
I just now tried to go to it from your link and it won't work either. Maybe it's just this computer.
We're having an awesome time; very emotional experience, but good! JC preached with such anointing on Sunday, but of course I couldn't understand anything. There was a good altar response though. We did the Wed. feeding thing for the Nicaraguan refugees, which is always such an emotional day for the mission teams. The other days, we have worked here at the Abraham Project on construction. Very hot, sweaty and tiring work, but rewarding to see the building that we worked on last year now full of orphans living there. We also did an English class one night, had church here last night, and have done work in the daycare. We leave at 4 AM Saturday to head home. Hope to see you soon!!!!

All is well!!! We are having an emotional day today, doing debriefing, telling all the workers goodbye, etc. You just get so attached to people in a week's time. I will share pictures when I get home. I'm very tired, but thanks for your prayers!!
I just walked in the house a couple hours ago. Eddie is preaching in Illiniois tomorrow, so I'm here all alone and getting ready to hit the bed soon. We only got four hours sleep last night, since we had to be up at 3 AM to leave Costa Rica.
There is no way to describe this trip. It was absolutely amazing, and I didn't think it could outdo last year, but I think it did. God did such amazing things and inspired our faith so much! Everything at the Abraham Project is a work of FAITH and God has met every need along the way. They have a church, orphanage, day care, adult education classes for the marginal community the church is located in, and much more. There is so much gang activity, drugs, child abuse, prostitution, etc. that is just rampant in that area. It makes me cry to even think about it. But God is saving people and changing their lives and it's so awesome to witness it and know that you have a little part in it.
One guy took all of our camera cards tonight and is compiling the pictures on CD's for us. Hopefully I will get mine tomorrow and can download some pictures here.
P.S. I had cold water and bugs. That part wasn't fun, but I survived.
