3rd post - from Kevin

Good morning/afternoon/evening or whatever it is back there in North America. Here is my special shout out to Kyle, Jesse and Adrian and all the rest of you guys back at CLBI and back at our homes. Words cannot explain how things are going over here in India. It has been a huge blessing from God to be here and to meet the people that we have met so far whether it be the kids at the school, the teachers or just random people. They all seem to have some kind of impact on you. We were back at the school again today teaching and once again the smiles on the kids were always bigger than their faces. Their appreciation for us is amazing just because it isn't really something you would expect. After school we played some more cricket and other games and the kids continue to give us a workout everyday. After that we went to this girls house who we had met because she wanted us to come over for a while and meet her family and she showed us around her house and we sang a couple songs for her dad. It continues to be very hot over here, which is a good thing but is something not typically felt back in Canada and I think some of us are missing our snow and ice a little bit. Also if you could keep in your prayers, Sarah was sick today so if you could pray for her health to be restored and to keep the rest of the team healthy. Also for the team to have safe travels over the next week as we head to and from different villages next week. As well don't forget about yourselves back home and for the other teams too because we have definitely remembered you guys over here and are thankful for your prayers. Other than that it has been great to see God at work in this country and through the people here so far. Miss you guys and God's BlessingsKevin

Cuddle with that Sarah of yours until she is in tip-top shape! Glad you are having an amazing time! Is there still that crazy little dog at the school?

I pray that you guys stay healthy and get healthy but as i experienced last year there are a lot of good things that come out of those sick days, stories that not many people from the team will be able to say they remember so keep your spirits up sarah and look for the little experiences God gave you that day!!!!

PS how do you enjoy the ladies at the house if there are any this year?

Hey guys, sounds like the trip is going well!I remember the fun me and Phil had trying to learn Cricket, it sure was challenging. Have you got a chance to ride the bus when the kids are going home? Have you been playing Hangman at school? I remember they loved that, and were much smarter than me. Enjoy every second of your trip! Take Care!

Hi guys, this blog thing is really cool! I love technology.

It is comforting as a parent to be able to know how you guys are all doing. I keep you all close to my heart and in my mind as I go about my day. Remember to drink it all in as this experience will become a defining piece of the puzzle of who you are becoming.

Remember the photos, we want pictures when you return.
Keeping you all in my prayers
