Canada Update #3

We had a windy, chilly day for day 3 of camp!  But despite the wind, we are celebrating 2 birthdays today on our team.  Darcy (one of the students from the local church here) treated them with ice cream after their lunch.

Bonne Fete, Xachory and JT!  We will celebrate officially a little later, and even have some fun with water balloons with Ron's students tonight!

Yesterday we spent some time in St. Julienne again, this time passing out free water bottles to passers-by.  The bottles had information about the Bible study that Serge desires to start there.  The team gave out 300 water bottles in a little over an hour.  Pray that those bottles will result in some phone calls, interest in the Bible study, and ultimately, new believers!

Madeline shared in the devotion time at today's camp and did an awesome job!  The translation was interesting, to say the least.  Madeline met another Spanish speaker here whose daughter is a part of the camp.  She is not a believer, but Madeline asked her if she would translate from Spanish to French today as she shared.  She agreed!  So, Madeline spoke in Spanish, which was then translated to French, which another man then translated into English!  Madeline accidentally spoke in English once, and the guy who was translating into English spoke in French a couple of times!  The point got across, though, and the kids all listened closely to the truth.  Madeline has shared some with her Spanish-speaking friend, and hopes to share more with her before the close of our week.

Tonight we are participating in Ron's students ministry meeting.  Thanks for continuing to pray.  There have already been some really wonderful conversations with adults who have stuck around the camp.  We are praying for even more!
