Ireland...

Throughout the trip, I will provide a running narrative of our trip.  Hopefully, this will allow the rest of the team members to be more personal and share their experiences without worrying about staying true to a timeline.  We arrived in Ireland around 8:25am (Ireland time) on Saturday morning.  We breezed through customs and were picked up by a leader from Open Arms Community Church, our partner for the kids camp this week.  This is also our home for the next few days.  Some of the church members are cooking for us throughout the week.  We have been well fed so far.  To fight the jet lag and stay awake we toured the Japanese Gardens and Irish National Stud Farm.  On Sunday we attended the morning worship service as well as the afternoon youth service.  Everyone is having a good time and we have made many new friends.  We're all looking forward to the start of 'Caper's Cove' tomorrow morning.  It was a little eye opening for most of the group to see that the gospel message is consistent throughout the world.  Jesus' love translates into every language and culture...
