Posts from the Team- Day 2
Today we woke up early and dressed ready to work immediately after breakfast. I showered and had less than 5 minutes to get myself ready. I quickly gathered my water, sunscreen, camera, and gloves then headed towards the team van. Although my hair was dripping wet, I completely enjoyed myself. I ate cereal with toast and enjoyed the company of my friends. The environment here is great. I am making new friendships and strengthening new ones. Last year I was the only girl from my high school on the mission trip. This year, we have about 10 girls, 6 of whom were placed in a room together. I thank God for the changes I see happening in the girls this week, and it is only the second day! Praise God for His glorious work!

Although I miss my momma, my dad-a-man, Brandon, and my other friends, this week is going spectacular. Heath is a great leader who keeps us all organized. All the adult leaders are helpful, encouraging, and very interesting to talk to. My team leaders are Matt and Jamie Roder. Everyone is in cheerful spirits and we are all having fun. I am having a week long two-way solitaire competition with Sean all week, and guess whos in the lead? I am :-) . Its about time for lunch now so I am going to go.
Love you Momme! Hope you get to read this!
En Christo,

P.S. Con tres anos de Espanol, soy hablando con los personas de San Vicente muy bueno. Me encanta cuando my amigos preguntame como decir palabras y frases. Adios por ahora y por favor continua a oran por nosotros. Gracias todos!

About Me

Name: RVCC & Missions
Home:
About Me: Since 1995 members of Rainier View Christian Church have been traveling to San Vicente, Mexico to serve Christ. San Vicente is located 120 miles south of the US/Mexican Boarder near San Diego. It is our desire to assist, encourage the missionaries and indigenous pastors in their labor of love for Christ, the local people and the migrant workers from Southern Mexico.

Our mission trips provide an opportunity for those from RVCC to serve as missionaries in a short-term capacity in response to God’s clear mandate and Jesus’ Great Commission.
