Today we went to Quilpue Christian Church to celebrate the Sabbath. It's the first time we would all attend a service together. It was a special day in many ways-- several events planned for the service including a presentation of Josh's INSPIRED video which is his personal testimony. The church worships in the auditorium of the Quilpue Christian school.

When the INSPIRED video was shown, about 3/4 of the people started crying. Rob preached after the video was shown, with Nathan (Josh's brother) translating for Rob. The main theme was "Jesus is in the business of changing lives." We celebrated the Lord's supper, which they do once a month instead of every Sunday. We then saw a video about the church's youth group called Mou. High school aged kids walked around town evangelizing, handing out leaflets about Jesus and invitations to visit and attend the church.

After the service we met to plan and prepare for VBS, which starts tomorrow. Afterwards we took a ride to Vina Del Mar for ice cream and a nice day at the beach hanging out and watching the ocean. We are now at Josh's house getting ready for a BBQ. It has been an awesome day, God is GR8!!!!!
