We awoke to some drizzling rain today and as I write this it is also drizzling. But this morning we went to the local church and enjoyed the fellowship with the local Christian believers. It is difficult to completely follow the language (Bislama), but you can understand a lot of what is said, as the language is written phonetically. Our team even sang a special number in front of the church. Jeremy Pinero, from Camp Shining Light, gave the sermon and it was well received. We then went across the water to Aore Resort where we had a delicious lunch and most of us spent a couple of hours snorkeling off the resort among the coral. The fish were plentiful and beautiful. It is amazing to just swim among them and realize that many of these fish probably don't venture too far from the protection of their specific piece of coral in their lifetimes. This evening we went to Camp Shining Light for the missionary fellowship time and a meal. It was good to visit with these folks. Tomorrow we will awake to another week of work. Please pray that we are not rained out this week as there is still a lot of outside work to do. Keep checking back for more updates.
