EASTER PROGRAM, TRIATHLON, SWIM MEET & GOOD FRIDAY

EASTER PROGRAM
We have been busy this last week enjoying some of the activities that the girl’s school has been involved in. So last Friday we enjoyed watching the girls in their Easter Program at school. Emily was a narrator in the K-1st grade play and practiced a lot so she could make sure and smile and speak loud. She did great. Chelsea's class recited a poem and sang two beautiful songs, including The Wonderful Cross.

TRIATHLON
Last Saturday Chelsea participated in a Triathlon, in which she did the running portion and her teammate did the swim and bike portion. They came in 4th and had a great time. She was extremely tired at the end and literally dropped to the ground after passing the finish line. But we did get her up and walking. It was neat to see the different kids from the school that were involved. They all did great and had fun.

SWIM MEET
On Wednesday of this week CAM school had a Swim Meet. It was so fun to watch all the kids swimming and trying to make the biggest splash. Chelsea is a strong swimmer and won 1st 3 times. Emily won for holding her breath the longest. It was fun to see all that they had learned in the last few months. Chelsea came in last for diving but stayed at the pool after the meet and she has finally got it down. She was so excited when she came home to tell us that she could dive now. Emily usually ends up on her stomach when she dives but she gives it her all.

GOOD FRIDAY (SEXTA-FEIRA SANTOS)
Last night at T3 Nate went out to show the Jesus Film and there was about 1500 people show up to watch and afterwards 100 people showed up to find out more about what they had seen. He said it was amazing. T3 church was the first OMS church in Mozambique. They are getting ready to build a building; right now it is just grass reed. Khongolate church had an all night service from 5pm until 4am. There were about 250 people present. Most of the churches had a special service for Good Friday. All had good turnouts.

PLEASE BE PRAYING.....The group will be leaving on April 12 for Gurue and will come back on the April 27. They will be going up for many reasons and mostly to support Dinis and comfort him in this hard time. They will try to teach the people up there how to do some things different so that Cholera wont be a problem over and over. They also will be doing evangelism, showing the Jesus film and helping disciple the people that will be working in the churches. Please pray for their safety and that the Lord will work through their time spent there. Pray also for Dinis family. Please pray also for the girls and I as we are home without him.
