Since yesterday was the last day of work, many disciples jumped into the pool last night with their job uniforms on as a SBP tradition.
Today is a free day and disciples are heading different directions. A good amount of disciples are visiting Charleston, others are going to be visiting North Myrtle, and some are just going to stay around project and enjoy the day.
Wednesday night, project had guys and girl’s time once again. Disciples really enjoyed their time. Girls and guys met at their respective meeting locations and spent time asking questions to a pnel formed by team leaders.
As for Thursday, after a long day of work it was show time. Guys had to perform a synchronized swimming routine for the ladies in order to win a group date for the night. However, because of a storm the show had to be stopped, nevertheless, every guy’s room was paired up with a girl’s room for the night.
Disciples are starting to work on cleaning. They have been given a list with the different tasks that need to be done before everyone leaves project.
As is true of today, the weekend at project is usually slow. Many of the disciples go on group dates or take naps, grinding activity at project to a near halt, which is fine for most who are drained from a busy week.
After Life Training with Reid Jilek and services at their respective churches, disciples still have the time to pray for the world. So far, more than half the world has been pinned for prayer, as disciples fill a world map with tacks as they pray for each country. As pins fill up the world map, God’s presence over the whole earth is awe-inspiring.
This morning the CCP group left project at 5:50 am. Some of the students sacrificed sleep to say “good bye” and pray for them once again.
At Life training Reid Jilek spoke about “Holding Loosely to Your Schedule.” Reid described the two extremes of being either over scheduled or laid back, and how there could be sin on both of these sides. Later on in the morning, students attended Church after life training.
Today, students at project are just relaxing with the goal to gain some energy before a new week starts.
Enjoy the Highlights of the week.
This morning around 1:30 am, the India Team arrived on project. Students are excited to spend about a week with this team by Elliot Stokes.
Furthermore, this morning at Life Training, Reid Jilek spoke about “Holding Loosely to Family.” He shared a little from his background and on how God has been working on his earthly family. His main focus was that “family is not the ultimate focus, God is.” Reid reminded us of the importance of our eternal family.
Moreover, today we were informed with the sad news that Garden City Baptist Church, one of the churches that the students attend, was severely destroyed by a fire. It took about five hours to extinguish and much of the church has been burned down. Therefore, we would appreciate if you keep in your prayers our brothers and sister of Garden City Beach Baptist Church.
