Thursday

Yesterday was a blast!

Students continued serving in their work groups during the morning. Then in the afternoon we went to Moody Bible Institute! We got to tour the campus and hear about all the amazing ways that Moody is training and equipping Christian leaders. We even ran into a former senior high student :-)

When the tours were over, the students were treated to an ice cream sundae bar....they loved this.

Afterwards, we headed to the lake for a devotional time and some fun at the beach. 

For our evening teaching, CW, the youth pastor at Sunshine, brought the message and he continued to push our group deeper into understanding the realities of racism and injustice. The conversations I heard happening in their small group discussions were really thought provoking and encouraging. What do these realities mean for the church, for us as Christ followers?

CW also performed a rap concert for our students....another highlight!

To finish the day, we surprised the students with a late night snack of Harold's fried chicken. A treat!

This morning they are at their work sites for their final work day. Keep praying for us...so much still to come in our last day today!
