From Lori

Hey this is Lori. I am a little late in reporting in about the parents day out, but it was a huge success. We had a gym full of kids of all ages. There were a wide mix of church and neighborhood families. Churched and unchurched all came. Their kids were great. We shared several great bible truths using a DVD that Aimee shared. We shared the plan of salvation and the kids were very responsive. On Sunday we taught the entire childrens program for the morning. We shared the hope of heaven that is coming. We feel deeeply drawn to the the children and families that we have had the chance to spend time with. The island is beautiful and we have also enjoyed time together as a team as we have been invited to see the sights of Oahu. Some of the sights included snorkeling in Hanauma Bay where we saw the most amazing sights underwater. Nemo fish everywhere and sea turtles hanging out all around. A few of the guys went surfing with the pastor's wife and a family from the church. We also kiked a mountain trail alongside the cliffs next to the ocean. Amazing views straight uphill!!! Today we head to the North Shore and the Dole Plantation just before heading home. We can't wait for our new friends from the Gathering to make their way to the mainland to allow us the oportunity to host them and introduce them to Rolling Hills. Pray for our safety as we board the flight around 8:30 Tuesday night. See you soon!
