This update is coming to you direct from the Reservation (or "Res", as everyone here refers to it). We have a access to the net today for a short time, so I thought I'd offer a brief update.
We have completed two amazing days of climbing in Jack's Canyon. Everyone enjoyed the climbing, many of us had new successes, many worked through frustration and failure, and we all enjoyed encouaging each other We spent about an hour last night talking through life lessons that can be learned through climbing...it was a really rich time for us all.
Today we have divided forces for two different work projects. Half of us are installing a new plaground that we've purchased for the ministry compound we are staying at (where the Wights live and work). The other half of us are helping another local ministry by rehabbing a trailer for one of the single missionaries to live in.
We are going to put on a fun run/walk for the Hopi tomorrow. We are very excited, and expect a large turnout--weekend races are a big deal here. We are hoping to meet a lot of the locals through the race and also Sunday's church activities.
We all miss our families, and are having a wonderful, growing, stretching time!
