Ocean Dance

So I've been informed that it's good just to let everyone know we're still alive and doing great here in Sri Lanka. We have been pretty busy but in the past 2 days we've actually been busy taking a couple of days off. We usually get to a computer when we're done at the church unpacking boxes and because we stayed away from there this weekend we didn't get a chance to update the world on our progress. Heather and I did get to an internet cafe a couple of days ago but because there was a creepy guy pretty much standing over me as I read my email I didn't feel all that comfortable sharing my life with him.

We did get to see the Indain ocean first hand (some more than others -our good friend Christine couldn't help herself and went in clothes and all) on Wednesday. However, pretty white girls are somewhat of a show here and Christine drew quite the crowd. If we were charging we could have actually made some good spending money. But all that aside, it was so beautiful and am so blessed to have seen yet another magical part of this planet! So we're still at the church doing the same ol' same ol' this past week and probably next. There are still a LOT of boxes. Imagine a whole semi filled to the brim with stuff unloaded into a small room and then 3 or 4 girls spending the days unpacking and organizing them. It's a PROJECT!

So Christine, Heather and I are still searching for EXACTLY what we're going to be doing here to best use our resources so keep praying that we can see that clearly! I'm keeping my eyes open for everything and anything I'm supposed to see here!

Sunday is almost over and the week's quickly approaching so pray for rest and peace for us here. Yesterday was my friend Kelly's wedding and it was the first day I felt the distance from here to home...it's further than I realized.

I know next time I will have more actual information to share but for now I guess I'll just have to leave you all with the fact that we saw an elephant chained to a tree...and that's normal!

Talk amongst yourselves...

Love, Jasmine
