Trinidad: Day 5
...Continuing the Trinidad de-brief.
(with a reliable internet connection.) :)
With our "relaxing" over with, it was time to start serving TTUM. Reggie, Kevin, and Tim were our designated ditch diggers. (With Kevin's wife De in the background making sure they were actually working.) ;)
Our "bloc socs" crew making custom-fit cement shoes.
The rest of us formed an oldie but goodie, bucket brigade.
After construction clean-up and lunch, we headed for "Bible Club" (VBS). We needed a little bit of help carrying Panasonic, our Arctic Edge themed Moose. (Panasonic name courtesy of Reggie.)
Where there is a digital camera, there is Trini youth!
Becca and friend making the best of Trinidad's rainy season.
After an exhausting first day of work, we were all ready for some food. (A special thanks to the cooks who "Americanized" our meals for us.)End of day 5.

GOD'S MESSAGE FOR ME TODAY
For this reason, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words; and not satisfied with this, he himself does not receive the brethren, either, and he forbids those who desire to do so and puts them out of the church.—3 John 1:10
HOW DOES THIS APPLY TO MY LIFE?
I like the fact that John will confront the man (Demetrius) who is slandering him and fellow believers. John isn't going to talk behind Demetrius' back or avoid him but confront him face to face not using a letter to do it. John even lets Demetrius know ahead of time since Demetrius will know doubt read or hear about John's promise.
We need to confront those who slander us with love, respect, and boldness. Face to face if possible. And no gossip or bad mouthing.
BE IN PRAYER FOR:
THE WORLD RELIGION AND CULT/SECT/OCCULT GROUPS THAT ADVERTISE IN HOMOSEXUAL PUBLICATIONS
There are an estimated 275,000 homosexuals living in the Twin Cities. (The homosexual community themselves would claim higher estimates.)
