Traveling went well and we arrived to our destination safely! Just had to wait a few hours to get the meds and medical equipment through customs, making for a late night and late stop at Wendy's on the way to the hotel.
We went to a neighborhood called The Red Sun which Jimmy (our contact in El Salvador) said was equivalent to The Bronx. This was where Jimmy's church is located. The church houses a school during the week which currently has 220 kids enrolled. After worshiping there, we traveled to Jimmy's father's church where we sang for the congregation. Pastor Duteal gave a sermon translated through Jimmy over 1 Peter regarding being called to holiness. After the message we broke for lunch. At 3:30 we left for an evening service at the Bolivar church. This church was built using money donated by First Baptist Bolivar and was located in a more remote part of town in the mountains. We sang and Pastor Duteal spoke once again before we headed home for the evening. Once we finished dinner, we sorted all the medicine for the week.
The pics attached are Herb talking at the second church we visited (notice the banner behind saying welcome missionary brothers), almost the whole team at the Bolivar church, and the crew sorting meds.
Pray for our week of ministry ahead, that God will show Himself through us to the people we serve.
