Team USA Update

Things carried on smoothly even without the booth. We hung around the same place we were yesterday and had many familiar faces stop by again, which was so encouraging! Nicole met a Christian yesterday that helped translate for a while, Ellie was able to talk to an English Professor in hopes of talking to his class tomorrow where he said we could talk about the Gospel! Praise the Lord! He just has to get permission first so prayers for that. Caleb reconnected with Dominicans that attend the San Pedro church and they labored alongside us for parts of the day. Matt was very encouraged with the relationships he was able build - without the booth we didn't meet as many people but were able to spend more time building into a few people in hopes we could help them understand what Jesus Christ did for us all. We are so thankful for our team members that know Spanish; Ellie and Scott were an unstoppable team together and all of us snagged Abe at one point to translate.

We all ended up attending the Bible Study today and were encouraged by all the interest there. Another sweet opportunity we had was to play volleyball with the locals.

A trend we are seeing is that many people wanted to practice their English and the Gospel tracts were a convenient English/Spanish translation for them to use, so many prayers that they would look past English practice and understand the message.
