Both teams have arrived safely in the Philippines! The Manila team arrived at around midnight, and the Tacloban team early this morning.
We had quite an adventure getting to the airport. The bus driver got lost several times and had to stop and ask for directions. By the time we arrived at the ticket counter, we had eight minutes to spare. We hurried and got everyone checked in and reached our gate just in time for boarding! It's so cool to see God already at work to get us to our destination.
Today will be a rest day of sorts. We will have orientation for leaders and students, swim tests for students, and a tour of the neighborhood. Work rotations will start tomorrow!
