Day 1 blog

This is what you missed from day 1 (we weren't able to post last night to our own blog):


We’re officially falling asleep in St.Louis de Nord at the NWHCM base! Praise the Lord. Our trip in was a ridiculous experience of terrific speed through treacherous terrain - the bus ride has once again lived up to its dubious reputation (even though many commented that its is better than going to any amusement park. The weather was hot (but not as hot as it could have been - although a bus has a certain resemblance to a pressure cooker when you pack 55 people in - yes, thats an average of 3 per seat for over 6 hrs in a school bus). 
Pray for us tonight as the schedule is beginning to take its toll on many (two nights of less than 3 hours of sleep for some). Pray for refreshing sleep and settling into our new and very different surroundings. Tomorrow is a day on the campus with orientation in the morning and campus projects in the afternoon. 
PS - If I didn’t imply it directly enough - all of your loved ones are safe and sound! Sleep well!
Doug
