This week is my last week with teams. This team is all from a church from Georgia. They are a young group made up of highschool students with a few parents.
Saturday:
We started the week going out to LaPiste and had a Bible lesson and play time in the morning with the kids. We drove out to Leveque for the afternoon and had a short tour.
Sunday:
The team went to church out in Leveque. In the afternoon the team continued the building of the rock cross from the previous team. The cross is called the "Cross of Thanksgiving" and some deaf helped us make the cross thicker.

Monday:
I had the opportunity to go with some MOH staff to meet up with a news reporter from the New York times. The reporter was writing a story about Leveque and wanted an interview with one of the deaf leaders. We decided to have Pastor William S. have the interview and my role was to help interpret the conversation. He did a wonderful job explaining the parternship of MOH and 410 Bridge. I was so proud of him! In the afternoon we had the kids join the team under the pavilion for story and activity time. The team had an activity and drama about Jacob and Esau and the kids loved it.Tuesday:
We spent the morning in Leveque working on coloring and painting with some kids and deaf adults while the strong men helped to start Mackenson's garden. In the afternoon we attended the weekly soccer game and the deaf leaders stomped the Americans 5 to 2.
Wednesday:
Today is the last full day for this team. We spent the morning in Leveque doing some more painting and visiting with the community. The team went out to Wahoo Bay for a nice relaxing afternoon before they fly home tomorrow.
