Thursday (January 16)

Thursday was our last full day at CCCD. Our team was able to finish both the retaining wall for the water storage system, as well as planting the entire field. Bekah and Mrs. Boucher continued to have devotional time with the staff during this time.

We had time to just hang out with the kids after we worked. This was a great time to fellowship and have some more discussions that began the evening before.

During chapel, we performed our team song. After that, Jordan, Emma C., and Gemma shared their testimonies. It was another great chapel!

This was unfortunately the time that we had to say goodbye to the students at CCCD. We wouldn’t have time to see them the next morning, so Thursday evening was tough. It’s amazing how close of a bond people can make in just one short week.

While everyone else was coming back to the Great House, Bekah and Anna stayed behind for a few minutes. They eventually came up to join the rest of the team, and they told us that the boy they were talking to, Dante, decided to give his life to Christ! Although we were all sad to leave the students, this was such a great way to end our time at CCCD!
