Day 5 -

Last night was a late night for the teens and so they moved a little slow this morning.  However, they were very productive with all teams on deck.  Students were working in the house, around the house, and even under the house, preforming their various jobs.  When they got back on the coach (yes it is a coach, not a bus according to our driver David) in the afternoon, they were covered in sweat and dirt.  Even with the heat and grim, the teens had such a positive attitude and loved to be active and took pride in what they were doing.  This is a long demanding week with little sleep and still the group comes together and takes ownership of the task that they are doing with smiles on their faces.  They are really amazing teens!
After taking showers, we got back on the coach and traveled to John's Island where Rural Missions hosted a dinner for us.  This is an annual mission trip treat with the best macaroni and cheese ever!  There was singing, dancing and prayer which everyone enjoyed.  We did learn, as a group, we did not know the proper way to clap to a song with any kind of rhythm.  So, they were kind enough to teach us.  We may be a hopeless cause with that one!😉👏
After dinner and a visit on the pier, it was back to Christ St. Paul's for our small group time, slide show, and BED!
