Gardens

everyone in Rampart has a garden so we weeded a lot of gardens at first we dreaded it but we soon realized weeding was so easy compared to the other things we did like hauling lumber or stacking wood.

VBS

Saturday through Wednesday we held Vacation Bible School for the kids.  We had a average of ten kids each day.  The first day we scared them the second day the brave souls who came back realized we weren't so scary.    We taught them the 4 most importent things in the world: God loves me, I have sinned, Jesus died for me and I need to decide to live for God.

 We had a parachute and a football and the kids loved to play with them.

The potty's

 These are the beautiful bathrooms that we were privileged to use.  They were extremely dirty and smelly and you might have heard about the mosquito's.  The bathroom was their favorite hang out and they will bite you anywhere and everywhere.  I will never complain about dirty bathrooms again, I have learned that a dirty bathroom is better then no bathroom at all.  The "toilet" is made of styrofoam with hole in it.  We were told by the villagers that no one uses that outhouse because it is so bad.  So I am not exaggerating.  Thankfully, 2 days before we left they opened up the bathrooms at the shower house!

The best :)

                        I'm pretty convinced that they had best TL's ever  and they had the best team ever!
