The team finally made it to Joy House last night after a long 4 hour drive. It took longer than normal due to the rain storm causing flooding on the road. They sat in the bus in stand still traffic. Everyone had a good night's sleep. Today they are unpacking and sorting supplies and preparing for the ministries they will be doing this week. The team will be going to the orphanage near Joy House this afternoon. Please pray for House of Hope and their director, Alice. Also, be praying for the church services in the morning. The team will definitely be at Jesus Church at Santos. They are hoping to go to Benito's church in Gran Savon (sp?) as well. Pray for the weather to be favorable, so the team can go out and do the ministries they have planned. There have been several tropical depressions lately that have really affected the area. Pray for each member of the team for safety, health, and that God would use them.
