We've adjusted our clocks to Jamaica time now (one hour earlier because they don't observe Daylight Savings Time here).
After a good night's sleep, everyone is feeling refreshed. Some were able to get showers last night, some this morning. Sadly, some rooms have had issues with no water pressure, no hot water, and backed up sewage, but attitudes remain good and we are hopeful to have some of these issues cleared up by tonight.
We're about to have a nice hot breakfast together here at the hotel, then a time of prayer before we head over to The Rock of Maypen to work for the day.
We've rented a stage, lighting, and sound equipment, and we'll be preparing the two sites for the concerts this week as well. Pastor Dennis has asked us to perform in the field next to the Tigermart on Friday night, and the soccer field at the rec center behind the church on Saturday night. Both areas are littered with trash and needto be cleaned up.
At the church, we'll be painting the exterior of the building, installing some ceiling fans, and possibly pouring concrete in the floors of some of the unfinished rooms.
If you would like to post a comment, we are able to check updates each morning and night and I would be happy to pass along your comments to any of the kids or the entire group.
Eveyone is healthy and doing well.

I hope everything at the hotel is better this evening. I hope today brings good weather and blessings for everyone. Our prayers are with the entire team. Hope Pastor Svend is feeling better. Tell Joan we love her.
