Our group has been working at a local school for the handicapped, working with a dental group teaching in a school about correct dental hygiene, doing construction for a school, and also building a house for Kenny, the construction manager here in Belize for Word at Work. Each day has been full of long hot projects and making many connections.
We start each day with a breezy quiet time right on our front porch or on the sea wall across the street watching the sunrise over the ocean. Then split into different work crews and pack as much work as we can at all of our different locations. No matter where we are working, it is inevitable we are joined by random Belizian children, dogs and new friends. It is so great!
We have had the wonderful treat of having a few local women cook lunch for us the past 2 days. It is a good break in the day and we get to enjoy delicious homemade food! It is a nice way to break up our PB& J sandwiches :)
Overall, the team is doing great and everyone is loving every second of the trip. We are all having a blast and trying to make the most out of every second!
Please continue to pray for the team's health and safety, team unity and for the people of Belize. God is so good and we are all seeing him and the body of Christ in a much new and real way!
Thanks for checking in and we'll try to update again before we leave!

There is a blizzard in Denver so
I am guessing the weather is significantly different where you are. By the time you get back things
will warm up again. Can't wait to hear your reports and see some photos
of your location. What an amazing way
to spend spring break. Pray for all
of you daily. Laura's folks-Jim and Paula
