July

Well, we've been here in North Africa for almost a month. It is incredible how quickly time is flying. We have had non stop volunteer teams since arriving. At this moment there are 33 people total in the house - including kiddos. It definitely keeps us busy and on our toes, but it is a huge blessing to be with like minded folks who are actively putting their faith into action.

We just have 4 more weeks until the month long holiday of Ramadan arrives. During that month work pretty much stops and we get to relax and visit with friends. Our favorite thing to do is go sit at the beach and soak up some sun, especially since during Ramadan not very many people go to the beach, we get it all to ourselves!

I wanted to upload a few photos, but our internet connection is super slow and it takes forever. Maybe I'll be able to slip away to an internet connection and get some photos on here for you all to see the fun we're having. The boys LOVE it here - dirt, eating with your hands, loads of friends and more sugar than you could shake a stick at. It is pretty close to heaven!

Hope your July is going well!
