Monday, July 14

My team and I checked out of MUN this morning to load up for Bellevue Beach. We had to stop at Conception Bay South for groceries and lunch. It was at lunch that Adam received a phone call that his step-dad will have to have open heart surgery very soon (I think the date is now July 30th). Please keep him and Adam in your prayers. I can’t imagine dealing with that being so far away from home. 

After lunch we came out to Bellevue Beach and met with Annabelle. (I will tell Annabelle’s story soon, just know that there is a bible study that meets in her hair salon and that she is an amazing woman of God). We had some scouting training with Adam and an intensive prayer time for the people in this area. Then we went out to the surrounding towns to see what they look like. I use the word town loosely because there are barely any people there. I’ve never really seen such small towns.  Annabelle says this area is heavily Catholic and they have a skewed view of the gospel. And again, we saw some absolutely beautiful areas. Then, we came back to Annabelle’s house and saw her wonderful back porch view. After that we went to eat at the only restaurant in the area. I had some incredible pan fried cod fish. We came back to the cabin and now I’m going to bed.
