Arrival day

Our team arrived safely in Belize.  Many of us got up as early as 2:45 am to catch our flight but as soon as we arrived at the Dorothy Menzies Center, we forgot about our exhaustion as the kids all ran out to hug us! We spent most of the afternoon with them and had to tear ourselves away.  Our awesome math camp teaching team got to check out the school where they will be teaching, and they are excited about it.  Bev and Jodie went to see their teaching facility too, where they will be teaching 30 teachers.  The construction team met with Cisco and Giovanni and have an excellent project list for the week that will keep them very busy!  Our travels were really smooth and as we talked about our day during our evening devotions, we realize the value of our "rookie year" last year!  We learned so much that paved the way for this year's trip.....from travel logistics to building the foundation for a strong relationship with the children and staff at DMCCC.  We are humbled as we think about all that God has in store for us this week, but we are ready to answer His call.
