Arrival!

We have arrived!  Twenty members of the Belize Mission Team  arrived bright and eager at 3:45am to begin a new adventure! We traveled without incidence, meeting up with our mission scouts, Tom and Tere in Belize City right on time. Did I mention the attention we attracted wearing our day glow GREEN team shirts?  The weather was a little overcast, a nice introduction considering the heat. We stopped for lunch and enjoyed reuniting with the McBrides.
Everyone is in great spirits, sweaty but happy!
After unloading, organizing, we divvied up bags of rice and beans for distribution. Our plan is to begin building a library tomorrow morning, along with playground repairs, and home visits. After a wonderful dinner, we had devotion time. We call it afterglow or before glow-depending on the time of day. The team finished with a beautiful communion service led by Lyn-an extension of the FCPC communion table this morning. Showers and soft beds were welcome sights at the end of our long day! Big things are happening tomorrow!
