Helloooo everyone, Gabriella here (: Let's try this blogging thing out and hope I don't sound too incredibly dumb.

This trip has been one of the best mission trips I've ever gone on, probably because this is the first one I've gone on by myself, as a part of the youthgroup. I miss my Daddy terribly, and I'm regretting telling him not to come. I know, however, that God is putting me through this for my own good, and I know that even though I might have had bad days previously, He will make beautiful things come out of my suffering.

Moving on! The team usually has some down time before we start VBS, and we've been using that time to help out Asa and the community. Yesterday we started cleaning out this room down below the youth center that hasn't been touched for at least 10 years. I know. Gross. It's an interesting experience, and I won't be sorry to leave it behind. There's some pretty cool stuff down there, though. They probably had a haunted house/Halloween thing down there at some point, so there's a bunch of creepy props, fake spiders, plastic knives, fun stuff, etc. that nobody's touched for years. In one closet, there were these GINORMOUS bones (we're pretty positive they're whale bones) wedged back into the corner, and I'm pretty sure there was something moving around back there. Ugh.

That's what been going on for the last couple days... Exciting. Cleaning stuff. Yay.

Your prayers and love is appreciated!

P.S. Daddy and Bella, if you're reading this, I love you lots and lots and I can't wait to be back home! Muah!
