The Last Day of Mission Work...Boo - hoo :(

Hello Californians!! This is Hannah B. here!!! The last day of ministering has sadly arrived. Most of us are not very happy to be leaving. The children are so cute and full of life. Last night at the Blazin' youth club there were so many kids who accepted the Lord! We are hoping that those who came last night will come again and more will come to know the Lord. This whole trip has been such a time of growth for all of us, especially for me personally. We are all exhausted because we are working so hard. For me the harder I work for the team the happier I become. God has truly blessed this trip. See you all soon! :) :) Love to all, Hannah Bristol




Late Night "4 On The Couch" Game (Guys Won....of course)

The Last Day

Allo Blokes!
Hola Amigos!
Plainly,
Hi guys! This is Nathan Satterfield, live from Swansea Wales. I must first say that I can't spell. Please forgive me for the incorrect spelling of your friends or family. Were do I began... There's so much to say. Well yesterday we had the Blazing Youth Club. There was about 11 kids there. 8 gave there life to Christ. The 3 were older teenagers. However they still talked to a few of the pastors, so I don't know the end product. Last night we played Charades. That was fun and funny! One of the ones I wrote was General Greavious from Star Wars 3. They are still joking around about that. No one knew who that was! I had to act out Cpt. Jack Sparrow. Mr. Steve said I did it so well it was scary. We also shot the last of the water balloons off yesterday. Two teams firing at each other with the catapolts. They weren't ment for that. Any way the other team ran out of balloons first. So we made a marvelous march over to the other side. And we got them good. Today we are at Clint and Rodah's and are helping them in any way we can. We Youth Club again tonight. We started this trip wanting to go home, thinking it would never end. Now we don't want to leave, we think it's gone by so quick. Tomorrow we're touring Wales, then London. I just heard that one of the 3 from the Youth Club did give their lives to Jesus. Well I guess that's all. Some last words. Josh, tell the benedettos hi, dylan I'm not arrested, and Mom that we should have to welcome back party on Thursday if we can. The sooner the better. Elizabeth wishes Marissa good luck on her try outs. See you Thursday!

Hey everybody! its lizzzabbbeth here. Today we got up and had nutella and toast. Which by the way emily you should totally try it (marissa too) cause its so good. Then we did worship and had our time with God, it was wonderfull :) VBS was fun today. Courtney and I taught the message today :0 That was interesting. James had a mini talent show and some of the kids showed there stuff and that was so much fun. We also went ot the park today and had a water baloon launching war. Thats what the picture is of. We made some friends today and they were so nice. One of the girls name was courtney (What a coinqidinc). Me and coutney were laminating sheets of paper today for the festival on Saturday and we almost broke the machine and two of the pieces of paper got melted together. FYI: the picture of courtney is of the water balloon plunger. Its suppost to be a faster way of making water balloons (but it really doesn't). By the way UNO ROCKS!!!!!! We were all up till 1 a.m. in the morning playing uno!!!! Courtney won!!!!!! Courtney wants to know: marissa what do you want from London and hi matt joss seargent, and also I love you Daddy, Mommy and Merr ! Okayy, Emily and matt what do you want? and i want to see the pic!

Cauliflower cheese

Papa James here , today was an adventure as we started our journey at around 7 in the morning eating some nuttela bananas and cereal:] After we had breakfast we decided that it would be an awesome idea to do worship and have alone time with ourselves and Jesus!!!!! After this we ventured off into the town from our little shack in the woods and we went to the church and handed leaflets out around the the church area. During this time me steve bailey and nathan satterfield went into a graveyard and looked around it was pretty cool. when we were done wih this we had VBS it was great the little kids here are so funnny and like to kick people and bite. (eddie got kicked while he was playing worship and steve got bit by a little guy and no one knows why). when VBS was over about an hour and a half later we all had some delicious soup and bread, and for desert we had toffee banana pie called banoffee(they have desert every meal here other then breakfast :]) When i finished the pie i went and helped put in a washer/dryer which was an all in one machine which was cool. When i got back to the church everyone was gone and i was there for about an hour and a half as they passed out leaflet When they got back i played hang man with everyone and it was alot of fun. Now we are all sitting down in the pastors house having cauliflower cheese and ham and bread. Well i will be back another day to tell you the interesting time that we are having gotta go now

Hello From Wales....

Hey this is COURTNAYYYYYYY!

Were in Wales! We got here this morning at 8:30 in the morning, and we took a bus ride for about 3 hours to the church of Calvary Chapel Swansea. I pretty much slept the whole way, more than the whole plane trip. We are all pretty exhausted and now we are waiting at Clint and Rhoda's house for dinner and then we will go back to our lodge and get some shut eye.  We are so excited to see God's work be done, I am so glad that we are able to help the church of Wales. God Bless, and we miss you!!!!!!!
Love,
the OnE and ONlY
CzORTnAyY

We Made It!!!!
