Still trying to play "catch up" on my blog. 
The month of June we had 2 teams, 1 conference for 200 and two couples guest housing as they worked with Healing Hands well drillers.
  We conducted the first of several VBS's at Blanquet church.  So much fun to see the 105 children  responding to the Word as well as crafts and outside play. There were two decisions for Christ.
July had 3 short term mission teams and a large youth retreat for 188 kids sponsored by an organization out of Ohio.  They also brought along 24 Americans to work with the children all week here on our campus. Thank you Bethany Morris for spending 2 weeks being the extra hands we needed.
The Mark Green and family came with the Wiggington family and a mother/daughter out of Louisville, KY.  What a blessing to see the crowds of people respond to Kim Wiggington's chalk talks and her husband Steve did basketball tricks as they both shared the Gospel. As always we had plenty of painting for the rest of the team.
Westport Rd Baptist Church arrived in late July with the first of their two teams coming this summer. This team was special for many reasons.....first of all our granddaughter Amanda was on the team and second they did two VBS's at Schekina....one in the morning for younger children and one in the afternoon for older youth.  Lots of singing, dancing, crafts and of course the Word.  Thirteen decisions for Christ. 
July 27th Rachel McClain and Anna Beth Riggs arrived to spend two weeks with GO missionaries helping out where ever they were needed.  Thanks ladies for taking your last two weeks before going to college to be with us.
