Greenville 7/18/12

Hey Everyone,
         We had an awesome Tuesday night seeing a beautiful sunset at the spillway. We also found out that Meryl Wiratmo has a beautiful singing voice (check out the video). We also split up into small groups to reflect on what God has been teaching us thus far. After a hard day we got some much needed sleep. 
         Today we had a very annoying wake up call from the fire alarm. I guess some vacuum released a bunch of dust and it set off the alarm. Let's just say many people woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Other than that we had a very eventful day. Most groups got the opportunity to serve in a different way. Groups 1 and 3 went to the park and sports complex to paint, while group 2 went to the nursing home to build in relationships with the residents there. It has been awesome to see God working through us as we serve this community. He has placed people in our paths that we can have a huge impact on. Everyone is very sad that they only have one more day to serve.
         After a hot day we ate dinner and celebrated Jamara White's birthday! The students loved the surprise of birthday cake. After dinner and the session we took the students to Pymatuning Lake (Pictures will be in the next blog). There we played frisbee, wrestled, and swam. Everyone had an awesome time and it was great to cool off in the water. Well one more day of serving then we pack up and leave. We are excited to see how God impacts our students the rest of the trip. Once again continue to pray for us!





Meryl got a huge crowd to stop and listen at the spillway.


We found out Meryl has a beautiful voice. She got up to sing during lunch at the nursing home!



We got spoiled!

She can play the piano too!
