Send-offs

OUTREACH HAS BEGUN!
      This weekend Team Peru, Malaysia and Vanuatu flew out to to their prospective areas.
We have been practicing skits, stomps and sermons all weekend, and our Aussie week of outreach officially started.
     Two days in We did a bit of gardening and manual labour, which wouldn't be bad, but it's so hot! It's nice to feel accomplished though, however sweaty we are. We helped with the filming of a skit for the base, (Hello Broadway!) and then went and sang at a retirement home. Some of them were firmly convinced we were a professional band form America  that came to sing to them, and that we were all married with family back home. My name somehow got changed to Catherine while I was there as well. I talked to this 97 year old WW2 veteran who kind of disliked Daniel because he thought he was Japanese. (I refrained from telling him that's where we were headed.) The next things we are doing are yet to be determined, other than the fact that we are helping out with Soundwave, a crazy hard rock festival. (look it up!)
As a team, we are still short on finances, so prayer for that will be awesome, as well as health. Our leader, Hannah, may be coming down with a cold. NOOOO! Those things shouldn't interfere with our outreach though.
  Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts, and feel free to contact me and the team. Bye!
