Michael ate cake-tasting protein powder for breakfast this morning. It looked rather odd.
The showers last night were communal - glad we brought swimsuits! And I hope you will note that we were very good and wore shower shoes!
There are two workers outside digging up the lawn at the church, so as to access the drain. Possibly this means that we will have our own lovely showers by tonight.
So today, it's back to All Peoples Christian Center for more learning and work. The kids are great, and we're looking forward to being with them again. And we get to hear more stories from the people that work there, which definitely touched all of us deeply when we heard stories yesterday.
The downside of today: Way Way is sick, and so Julie and the kids are leaving us for a couple of days (they have family in the area).
It's hard to make secret buddy gifts, because we work from 9-ish to 5-ish, and then come back for dinner and rec or spiritual leadership, and have no good time in which to subtly avoid people.
But now...hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work we go!
Love, Becca and Monica

I second Emma... secret buddy stuff is tricky!

I'm sure it can't be as hot as Fresno was last year (can it? If so, I'm very sorry!) Remember when both vans decided independently to bring back ice cream for the whole group? That was a good evening! yum!

Love,
Rachel

p.s. have you played psychiatrist yet? It's not fair that I never get a chance to torture the poor helpless new people (like myself last year).

Yeah shower shoes! Very proud.
Monica, I'm very sorry, but due to the huge fruit salad in the loby (and my time crunch) I didn't find the pineapple and have no info for the lovely cherries.
Dad says Jasper shouldn't complain about the heat because that what you get when you go around eating bananas.
Love and good wishes to Way Way from the whole family.
Love,
Elizabeth

Elizabeth, Monica here. I actually am not sure that the pineapple was present at the event we speak of. Needless to say, the cherries are not pleased, and the pineapple will find itself in a very sticky situation if it does not present an appropriate excuse.
