We have had another very busy day in Chiclayo! We started off the day by heading over the Cerropon for VBS. We were again met with cheering children and a lot of kisses. After singing songs, having a lesson, and playing a lot, we headed back to the church where we changed into our work clothes. We left the church and went over to Virgin de la Paz to work on our wall project again. It was really hot today, my job was mixing mud by hand which was fun. Others were laying bricks, or gathering dirt. We also played with the kids a bit too. When we were done work for the day, we came home and had lunch. When we finished, the whole team, along with three of our Peruvian friends went to catch a Combi to go to the beach. It was much less crowded today than it was the last time we were there which was nice. We were in the water for a good couple of hours playing in the huge waves. Some of the boys stayed on the beach and played soccer while we went out in the water again after a break. We were lucky enough to find a Combi with room for all eight of us, so we all rode back together. When we got home, we had a snack and just hung out for a bit until supper. After supper, some of us played Phase 10. Then, we all went to bed pretty early because we were so tired.

Please pray for us, that we would keep our energy up even in the heat. Also pray that our building project would be completed soon. Pray for all of the people that we have met, that God would touch their lives in a special way.

Thank you so much for your continued support and prayer!
