We are very excited about how much we were able to accomplish at all four work sites. Some of the things we ran into while on the sites, dead rat, large pet cockroaches, contents of homes that have not been touched for nearly two years. We were all a bit sobered to see the amount of things people lost. It was really sad to see family heirlooms that weren't salvagable. Our team worked very hard and is doing well with their health. We had a couple of team members from the other churches that are not feeling well.
Challenge Circle went well again, we had a great turn out of children. The children and the student leaders have really gotten a hang of the games and sayings we use. We are not sure who is having a better time, the children or our team members.
Prayer Items: 1) For weather that allows us to minister effectively. 2) For our tour of New Orleans to get a big picture of what New Orleans is all about. 3) Pray that we would finish well, we have one Challenge Circle night left. 4) That our teams will be bold in sharing Jesus Christ with the children and other people that are around.

Thank you so much for the great updates each day! We look forward to seeing how the Lord is working through you. In Is. 58:10-11, it talks to us about when we satisfy the needs of the oppressed then your light will rise in the darkness and the Lord will strengthen you. I'm sure you all have tired bodies from you hard labor. He will give you strength! Heidi,McKenzie, Anna and Ava
We are praiseing God that things are going well and that He is so good. We are praying for you all on your last night of challlenge circle. Let you light and words glorify Him
we love you
the Bostrom family
