We had a 3 day staff retreat last week. A speaker from the states was invited to give several talks and we had lots of time for praise and worship Dominican styles. That means drums, maracas, guiras, and dancing.
No caption necessary here.
Hanley lives across the street from out apartment. He's 11 and he comes over almost every day. That's been a great ministry opportunity for Caroline and I. His dad left his mom when he was born and his mom asked me if I would be a male role model for him because he doesn't have one.
We went camping last weekend on that little tiny island in the center of the picture. This lake is a reservoir about 2 hours from our house.
It was pretty windy with a chance of rain most of the day but we got lucky. We spent most of the day swimming and gather wood for the fire. We cooked food the entire night including 3 whole chickens, porkchops, shrimp, twice baked potatoes, banana boats, and tons of cookies. In conclusion, camping with girls, not that bad...
Caroline and I versus Cristian and Katie in a classic game of Dominoes. It was close but the (half) Dominican team wound up on top in the end.
We used scraps from the chicken to catch shrimp and eat them.
We did not eat any frogs, or kiss any for that matter.
