We are currently on a Vacation with a Purpose on the island of Boracay in the Philippines. The vacation part is obvious, the purpose is to spend half of our time ministering to the various villages alongside the local missionaries. Our mornings have been filled with working to help construct a multi-function building that will house a medical clinic, school and gymnasium. We have sifted sand, plastered walls, hauled dirt, demolished walls and helped to level ground. In the afternoons we head out to a few of the villages and provide food, medical care and activities for the kids. Our evenings are free and we enjoy the sunsets and rest from the days work. We are here with 4 other families from our church in Shanghai (they are also in our small group). In total we are 22 people. It has been a great vacation so far and it has been fun getting to know the other families. I will blog more later - off to go snorkeling now.
