St. John - Day 4

DILAN YILMAZ

We started another hot day here at St. John, ready to prepare meals for people who lost so much, even their homes and to serve them. 


But we woke up today without electricity! Thanks God we have a generator which helps us to continue with our work to prepare meals for lunch to serve the people.Two brothers from our group (David & Aaron) went yesterday to st. Thomas island to buy a generator in case we would need it. Here it is, the following day without losing motivation we were able to keep working as scheduled. A few hours later we had again electricity running. Praised be the Lord in every situation he always provides a way in His very timing (reminds me on james 1 "trust without doubting").🙏🏻

Today was spaghetti Bolognese and garlic bread with a bottle of water on the menu, also some candy was given out. Its beautiful to make people smile with just beeing kind and friendly. While serving them, some of us also had conversations with the locals. Katie makes children easyly smile just because of her kind personality how easily she finds her way to them and the rest of the group is just awesome to see how they all function together as one body - some were talking and engaging - great team work. Later in the evening we went out for dinner and saw some kids dressed up for Halloween. Its encouraging to see how people adjust themselves to the given circumstances and try to go on with their "normal" lives. Later some of us were able to take a shower again at a pastors house, not so far from our Fishtrap. Its a privilige to be a part of a diverse group with the same focus in heart, thank you Lord! Prayers needs to be continued for sure!
