El Salvador update

John and his team made it to El Salvador late Thursday night and have been ministering to a church and school there.  They are sharing their testimonies, preaching, doing a VBS there, and building a children's church in their building.  Yesterday they were able to do some street evangelism.  John is most excited about his ability to speak Spanish there.  He had been practicing before he left and he told me yesterday that he is able to make friends with the people there and actually have conversations with them.  He also said it feels like they have been there for 2 weeks even though it has only been 3 days.  One of the girls on the team is writing a blog while she is there, if you are interested in reading her story too: http://hopeforelsalvador.blogspot.com/.  It's been nice to talk, chat, or text with John while he has been gone.  Things at home are going very smooth, but not so well at work.  I am trying to help there the best I can before the kids and I venture to St. Louis this week to see the arch, zoo, and science center.  Thanks for praying for John and us while we are apart...
