Breast milk is magical. Put it in eyes and ears to help infection. (It works, people!)
Don't give cough medicine after eating a bowl of oatmeal cereal.
Barf.
Everywhere.
These are a few life lessons I have learned over the last week while tending to our cuddly little peanut, Josiah. Although he is the happiest sick kid I've ever met... he has still been very demanding :)
As you know, I like to get our blog out every Monday but these last few weeks have proved difficult as we've been busy with teen camp, trips, ministry, groups and of course trying to stay afloat as the craziness of summer winds down.
Ministry has never been 9 to 5... but summer adds its own dose of CRAZY!
Saying that, we are so grateful for the amazing, unforgettable experiences we have had over the years, and the beautiful people we have had the privilege of serving beside.
Last week I gave you a run down on our trip to Atlanta, but had promised some updates on camp.
It was an incredible (and tiring!) few days where teens enjoyed the preaching of God's Word, Bible competition, worship, sports, challenges and plenty of games. There were several decisions made, including Salvation and dedications. Please be praying for those who made a commitment! That their churches would come alongside them and help them to grow!
Here are just a few photos from Mud Day and one on the last day of camp:
Upon our return from Atlanta, we were able to serve with some of our favorite people!
Robersy has gotten to play a WHOLE lot of baseball lately :) and even translated (YES! Translated!) for a visiting team led by our director (John Zeller) and former MLB player, Keith Madison.
Tuesday Girl's club has been going great too. Last week we were able to share the Gospel with over 31 young ladies. We pray this time during summer makes a lasting impact on their lives!
Of course between groups and ministry we've been able to celebrate graduations, Father's Day (celebrated a little later that the States/Bermuda), and Josiah's 6 months!
It has been a fantastic summer and we are ready for a little down time before the school year begins again.
Thank you for your prayers and I look forward to updating you again next Monday <3
Love,
The Laras
