First Day in El Salvador

Hello everyone!

It has been quite a busy and tiring day of traveling but God has blessed us so much today! We arrived in El Salvador at around noon (well, 2 pm Canada time) and everything went well. We had the great opportunity to meet a team from USA that are helping out with YFC in Honduras and although it was a bit awkward at first, the Spirit just worked in both the teams and God connected us through worship and prayer. By the end of the night, we were all getting along, chatting and not wanting to say good-bye! The Lord definitely knows what He`s doing and He always has a plan :) We are so thankful to have this opportunity to serve Him, learn the culture and the language of El Salvador as well as to meet wonderful children of God.

It was quite a day. We are all so tired, but so intense and ready to begin this great mission. It is now 11:30 which is 1:30 back home, and many of us have been up for over 40 hours and we have had very little sleep. We have been so blessed by all that has happened so far, even though we have not even really started. To have our US brothers and sisters here at the same time was such a lift to us, to be able to have a time of worship and prayer with 4 countries gathered together under one roof and to have us all here for the same purpose was such an amazaing time. You could feel the Spirit of the Lord was with us and everyone felt the same way. Oh... I hear thunder in the background and I hear the rain on the roof... must be time to go to bed. We will put more up tomorrow and will try and get some pictures up. Please do not stop praying for us and we need a prayer that our energy will continue over the next few days as we get use to the climate.

Blessings to you all at home. We are praying for you all.
