Hello!

Sorry we haven't written in a while. The internet has been down for a bit at our host home for a while so we have been reading, playing games, and getting a little more sleep instead of updating the blog. We are currently sitting at Community Church of God. The last day of VBS ended about 2 hours ago. Now we are waiting for 6pm tonight when the closing program will occur. The students will be showing their parents what they learned this week. By focusing on and memorizing the Lord's prayer the students have learned: God listens, God Provides, God forgives, God protects, and God rules. It has been a wonderful week. The teens took on the closing program with lots of enthusiasm and we are looking forward to seeing their final product tonight. The other students have learned a lot and have really embraced everything that has been thrown at them. We are so excited for them to sing their songs tonight! They are just so cute when they are excited and committed to what they are doing. That is a nice rundown of our Friday.

Wednesday and Thursday were filled to the brim with VBS, a free walking tour of London-which we would recommend to anyone traveling abroad. They have tours in almost every European country-its very entertaining. We were also able to go the National Gallery and see some of the works of Rembrandt, Van Gough, Monet and many more artists. We concluded Thursday evening with Wicked the Musical. It was fabulous. We have seen it before but it was rather interesting hearing it with british accents. We both decided that the character of Fiero is much better with a british accent:) It poured last night with is typical of London. We have actually been blessed to have rather nice and arm whether this trip. The locals are loving it!

We are hoping to make it to Windsor Castle tomorrow. We are hoping to see some of the beautiful english country side.

Below are some pictures. Enjoy!

This is for you mom:)

This is a statue of Florence Nightengale. Our tour guide spoke quite highly of her. The brits are pretty proud:)

This is Debbie with a few of the kids. The two boys, Joseph and Shabaaz have pretty much stolen her heart. She will probably cry tonight at the closing program.

These two boys randomly decided that they wanted to sing Jesus loves me at closing assembly today. It was absolutely beautiful.
Jennie and Micah. He is quite the heartbreaker:)
We hope to blog again soon! Thank you for keeping us in your prayers. We love you all so much!

Love,

Debbie and Jennie
