And we have a connection...I think!

Hello Daybreak family! Thank you so much for praying faithfully for us we have had an amazing trip so far. We have been in a very rural area in the jungle surrounded by banana trees. God's hand has been on this trip from the very beginning. Right before we arrived in El Carmen they experienced lots of rain which is rare for this time of year. Uusally it is very hot and dry. But when we arrived it became cloudy and "cooler". Which was an amazing blessing because our job was to move a mountain. Literally we cleared the church site and began to dig out a large hill that was on the site. Which we were thankful was softened by the unexpected rain. We dug and dug and dug for days. On our last day as we were loading the shovels onto the truck the sun came out in full force so we did get to see and experience the beautiful weather that El Carmen usually has but we were very thankful we didn't have to work in it.

We stayed in homes of church members who graisously cleared out of their rooms so that we could sleep in there beds. Their hospitality was humbling. We were truly blessed by the community of our Ecuadorian brothers and sisters. We are now back in Quito and I have to admit a hot shower felt GREAT! But we are exhausted and looking forward to a good nights sleep. If the internet connection is good tomorrow I am hoping to post a blog with a little note from everyone.

For now know that we are well and healthy. We've come up with a few nicknames for some team members see if you can figure them out. There's A-Lo, J-Studly, K-Byz, Pam the Blam & Rocky.

Don't forget to check back tomorrow! And pray for a good connection. We LOVE you guys.
