Today was our second morning over here, and tomorrow we\u2019ll get to jump right into ministry with the kids! Today wasn\u2019t as much exploration as it was prep work, but these are the kind of days that we\u2019ll need in order to most effectively spread the Gospel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We opened up this morning with our team and all got to wake up to some of Isaac\u2019s coffee, something he has a bit of talent for! After getting up and ready enjoying the natural beauty here, we had some of our ministry leaders come over and give us an orientation on the culture over here. There were laughs shared and tears shed learning about all of the unique things and hardships that these folk suffer through, and a fire was lit inside all of us ready to serve to the best of our ability tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2027\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-2-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2028\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-1.jpg 480w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-1-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We then at at a cafeteria styled restaurant where the food was great, and we got to relax at. After a lunch we had some locals who will work alongside us this trip teach us the language, and we spent a significant amount of time learning to count to 10 and learn some important snippets to help talk to the children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-3-min-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2029\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-3-min-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-3-min-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-3-min-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-3-min-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-3-min-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-4-min-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2030\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-4-min-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-4-min-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-4-min-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-4-min-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-4-min-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We then moved onto preparing our first day of VBS for tomorrow, with getting down our skit, music selections, craft and game ready for the day! After spending that time till dinner finishing our work, we enjoyed some more time team bonding and sharing in Banitsa, a local popular pastry here that was incredibly well made!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2031\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-5.jpg 800w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-5-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-5-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-6-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-6-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-6-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/jessup.edu\/globaloutreach\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Photo-6.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting to see the work that everyone is putting into this as well as talents shining where we hadn\u2019t expected has been such a blessing, and a great joy experiencing the growth we\u2019ve had even as a team these last few days.
