IMG_1616Well to kick off our 6th day in Turks and Caicos, some of us morning risers went to the beach at 6:00 AM to pray and spend time with God. Soon after that, we did an assembly at a Primary School. To start it all the team members performed “Jump”, and then Kris and his gang did the doctor skit, which was hilarious. Tyler and Troy both did awesome as they shared their testimonies to the students. We didn’t have props to do “Set Me Free”, so instead Deanna’s team did “Everything”. I(Jourdan) tasted my lips after the drama and realized that they were salty from all the sweat..:)..in which Shayna made fun of. The school bell initiated that the kids had to go back to class to take exams. Some of us went to talk to 6th graders going into high school and some went to the 4 and 5 year old rooms. We prayed with the 6th graders, to stay active in Christ and not to give into temptations. The group that went to the youngins room, just played and had a good time with them.

After going to the school, we left to get lunch back at the hotel. First, we played the toothpick game in the pool where you grab the toothpick when it rises to the top of the pool. Aaron Stewart, Brooke Sheesly, and Jourdan Alioth with her inner Rich Alioth destroyed everyone else. Tucker did not stick with me there(i’m Zach). After a wonderful lunch, most of us went to the windy beach. Once everyone dribbled in from the beach, everyone galloped onto the churcheth. There we prayed for about an hour, did devotions, and worshiped. Then we hopped onto the bus to the sport center.

IMG_1878Since yesterday, the size of the attendees tripled (not doubled as previously thought. The cheerleaders pranced around. The basketballers dribbled like glamourous swans in the middle of a beautiful cliffside lake. The soccer players waddled around and kicked around balls. Each person has their own huddle groups so we can build more relationships with the young cherubs. The cheerleaders finished the basics of their routine. The soccer players did more fun drills and shot at Kris McNaney. He and Tyler Gay are doing an exquisite job in leading the young ones. The basketball players played a game. All the leaders against the kids. My (Zach) group got wrecked because the other team had a certain someone named Trevalon. This kid can play.

“I miss all of you! Miss you daddy..see you in 4 days!! Keep us in your prayers.” –Jourdan
“To my family, stay strong. It must be hard without me there. Adam, make sure to feed the naked things, in my house, poison because I don’t want to see them once I return” –Zach
“Kari Kopac! Thanks for all of your wonderful messages to all of us! I love you chica!” –Shayna
