We had a time of relaxation today. It is even more special being at the beach when the temperatures back home are hovering around the single digits. A couple of us paid for it with sunburns.
The best thing about the day, however, was celebrating the completion of the church building with the congregation. We brought some soda and cake to help with occasion. It took a while for the congregation to assemble but when they started to role in, the building was soon packed.
Giving thanks and singing praises with fellow believers of another culture is an amazing experience. We shared greetings from Shalom and they, in turn passed along their gratitude to our congregation.
Thanks to everyone for your prayers and support. We are looking forward to sharing more of our experiences with you in person.
Please pray for safe travels.
