Mid Day Saturday...
Today has been a travel day...got up and had breakfast at 8:00am...then left for Port Antonio about 9:15. We stopped at a place called Buccaneer Jerk & Juice for lunch. I wish I could upload pics of the food, this was an epic SCOOBY SNACK! Some had jerk chicken while others had jerk pork. I went with the jerk pork and it was awesome! Also had some of the best spicy hot sauce I've ever had! We were able to make arrangements with the owner of the restaurant and we put in an order for 15 bottles of the sauce which we will pick up on our way back on Tuesday (I ordered 3 bottles, only about $3 american a bottle).
We have checked into the hotel Tim Bamboo and the rooms are the nicest we've stayed in during any of my 3 trips to Jamaica. There is no pool and the internet is quite slow, but at least we have it! The rooms are amazing, and we are looking forward to a great night of ministry tonight on the street. Please pray for Rusty as I've asked him to do the main message/gospel. This will be the first time he's done a night show presentation. It will be a great experience for him, so please pray for his clear thoughts to be from God and peace of the Holy Spirit to help him deliver the Word.
Tomorrow we have 4 shows, that include 2 church services (different churches), a VBS (pray for Cari Day as she leads it!) and another night show. Going to be a long day, but we are excited!
I'm sorry I can't post pictures from this hotel for the next few days, it takes to much bandwidth, and would literally take hours...
Dinner time is soon and then we are off to the show...I'll try to write a little more tonight, but may not be able to, as the internet is not consistant.
Blessings!
GOD RULZ!

We are back from another all day trip, where we went to 3 places. The first was a government run home for kids with disabilities, it was a very emotional experience for me. The kids there were beautiful, and our kids loved on them like crazy.
2nd stop was an infirmary for older people, also government ran. Mainly at both places we didn't even do any of our show, we just talked, and hugged, and smiled. With the first stop we did do a couple of puppet song that the kids loved!
3rd stop was another street show, Ben and Ginger shared their testimonies. The ride home was absolutely hilarious as Ben went crazy leading songs from Star Wars, Weird Al, Elmo and many many more...the man is a gifted entertainer...hope he blesses youth with it and becomes a youth pastor!
I was very proud of each of the kids and had some neat specific interaction with Kylie, as I had her come and just take a hand of a young girl at the first stop. The girl couldn't speak, and really didn't move. But at one point as Kylie was just telling her how beautful she was, and how much Jesus loved her, the girl squeezed her hand very tight. What an awesome thing to know that the simplest of things can share the love of Christ!
