June 14, 2009 7:30 am

Its Sunday morning. Breakfast is at 8:00 and Sunday School starts at 9:00.

Sometimes I wonder how early the kids wake up. Whether my alarm goes off at 6:00 am or 7:30 am, I can always hear screams and laughter coming from the courtyard.

The church service is from 10:00-12:00 and is preached in Tagolag. The praise band sings for almost and hour and plays a lot of Hillsong, Desperation Band, and Chris Tomlin. After church, we are going with Kuya Alan and Ate Aia (pastor's daughter and son-in-law) to South Supermarket. It's about fourty minutes away but its supposed to have "everything." Hailey is very excited about the prospect of pop tarts! They make Sunday trips to buy groceries and we are going to tag along.

The Pastor and his wife, Kuya Pio and Ate Nennette are vacationing in California and won't be back until early July so I have not met them yet. For dinner last night they served an American meal-- fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and sweet tea. It was very good but it was definitely "philippino style."

Last update for a few days. I won't have internet access until 6/21. I'm praying for you guys and I love you.
