Saturday June 28th

Saturday was a relaxing day and a cleaning day. We said goodbye to five of our team members and then we cleaned the guest house. We all had chores to complete and they were done swiftly and without complaining. That's always a good thing!

We had a lot of free time and many of us read and played cards. We also went to the market and the store. Around 3pm we went to a new village to visit a small Catholic cathedral. It was very interesting and definitely worth te visit. Following the church we went to a market and a leather shop where some of our team members bought some pretty cool machetes...we then went to a cool little coffee shop and watched the end of a World Cup game. Most people got lattes and some even got some cakes and pies for dessert. It was a posh little spot for sure.
We came home for dinner and then went to a church service. The church was about an hour away and when we arrived thy had already begun. But we quickly go immersed into the service as they were expecting us. We sang a couple of songs in English and then Peyton and Katrina shared testimonies, followed by a short message given by Jesse(the intern). We ended the service by going around and talking to all of the members of the congregation. It was a good time for sure. The students all seemed to really enjoy it.
Sunday morning we were allowed to sleep in and we had a huge brunch at 11am. We did more chores and now we are preparing to go to another church service.
