Yesterday we broke up into 2 groups. Brian Vaudrin and myself took one group, and John Stahl and Ben Adams took the other. 

My group went snorkeling off the coast of Paradise Island! We had a great time swimming around and admiring God’s creation. Words can’t describe what you see. There were coral reefs and tons of different kinds of fish that were the most amazing colors and shapes. 

John’s group went out to do some more door-to-door ministry near the same area we were at yesterday. It was another low class area. God’s spirit was with them though and they saw more people come to Christ and planted many more seeds. Once again, they invited everyone to a park for a service at 7:00pm. 

We all got back together for lunch, then we split up again. My group had free time to go shopping at the local Straw Market and other stores. John’s group went to see another fort and the Queen’s Staircase, which are two more historical locations on the island. 

After dinner, we all headed out to the park. Just like last night, we played basketball and other games with the people that came out. Our students performed another drama, and Pastor Rick spoke. God moved once again and we saw 4 more souls gain heaven as their home!

Today our groups will switch rolls. John’s group will go snorkeling and shopping, my group will do ministry and sight seeing.

 

I’m sorry to say, that this will be my last blog entry from the Bahamas. I’m posting this on Friday morning the 8th and we are heading back to the States tomorrow morning. I know I won’t be able to make the walk to McDonald’s and have time to write anything else before we leave. Not to mention upload any more photos then I already did today (Click here). It takes forever to do it!

Thank you all so much for the encouraging comments you have left. I’ve tried to pass along as many as I could. Thank you most importantly for your prayers during this week. We have certainly felt them.

Be sure to be at ABT next Sunday morning August 17. John Stahl will be speaking and the service will be all about our trip. You won’t want to miss it!

Its been an amazing (and crazy) week and I know we have all been changed because of it. We’ve seen God moment, after God moment, after God moment. I pray that those God moments continue when we get home.
