It is sad that we are in our final days here.  The team is jelling together and really enjoying each ministry.  Friday we had youth group at Kayon.  the kids their love to worship and hear the word of God.  We finished up at Fig Tree last week as well.  the community truly noticed something different about the area.  Saturday we were invited to go to the Mariot and swim.  we had some amazing Mango BBQ chicken wings and Conche Fritters.  That night was Awana and there was some new faces and quite a few of them.  Sunday we had Church at the House.  After church we went to the Childrens home to hang out and eat pizza.  These kids were amazing.  I will post some pics and video to our CCBCi FB page.  Well keep praying and we will see you at the end of the week.

Well what a fun day Thursday was.  Each year at the bible college we go on a wilderness trip.  5 days in the wilderness with little to no resources.  It is mostly flat and pretty light hiking.  Some of our group have never been on the wilderness trip.  While others, well, have never been hiking at all.  So what a better way to warm for the wilderness hike with a Volcano hike.  So we set for Mount Liamuiga which is a dormant volcano here on the Island.  The steepest peak of the volcano is 3,792 feet.  We did not go that high. It is roughly a 6 mile round trip hike. we may have been around 2100 feet.  anyways it was a good hike.  For someone who has never hiked at all, it gave me a challenge but in the end, priceless.  God’s creation was evident throughout the entire hike.  The whole group made it up and down.  So there you have it.  I will let the pictures do the rest.  Thanks for your continued prayers.

What an Island.  God’s creation is alive and vibrant here in St. Kitts.  The trip is going smoothly.  Brandon and Wendy have been here for just over a year now.  It is crazy cool to see what God has done on this Island with their relationships with the people here.  They are showing us the ways here and they are much like ours back in the states.  The biggest thing is time here.  Everything runs very slow.  The days feel longer and the heat in the afternoon run us down.  God is our strength and has kept us well.  Each ministry that has been placed on Brandon’s heart is a direct result of listening to the voice of God!  Rich Day arrived yesterday and is adapting well to what the Isalnd has to offer. Hope you are all doing well and are blessed by the updates.  See ya soon.

Well time got away from us just a bit.  Sorry for that but i have some pics and notes you should like.  Friday night we went to Kayon for youth group.  If you are friends with us on Facebook we posted a video of the group singing with some still photos.  What a great night of worship and seeing the kids heart for God.  Saturday we spent the majority of the day at the Graysons painting and hanging the new screen doors.  Braxton and Marcia were able to go on Dominion Radio, a local christian radio station here in St. Kitts.  They did a great job speaking a bit on their personal relationship with the Lord. Later that evening we went and had the Sparks Awana night.  Seeing these kids laugh and smile was great but one group did over 45 verses memorized!  Praise the Lord.  That is so cool.  We led worship and group time.  Keep this ministry in your prayers as it continues to grow and the kids continue to respond in faith.  Today the Church of God here made us feel very welcome into their Church.  It was a nice service as the electricity was shut off from 6 a.m. to about 2 in the afternoon.  So we cam back and headed to the beach.  What a nice trip/  So here are some pics.  There will be more loaded on our facebook pages.  Come see us and thanks for the continued prayers.  We Love You!

What a day.  Started out with a nice breakfast and then made lunch to take with us.  We headed out to another part of the island.  When we arrived we saw what we were about to do.  It was hard at first and seemed daunting, but this team was amazing all day long.  The heat here is very different as the sun beats directly down on you.  One of the nicest things is that it started to rain during the project.  Thank you Lord for that.  It actually felt great.  We had lunch and then went back out and tackled more weeds.  God was good to us as He kept us hydrated and no one was injured.  So for tonight it is a bit of a relaxing time as Brandon and Luke have basketball practice.  We will walk down there and get our share of Ting the local drink here.  May even get a card game in or two.  So again thanks for the prayers.

Today please keep in prayer the heat for the team.  exhaustion is setting in but we are faithful that God is watching over us.

Here are some pics from our service day.

Thanks again Brent

Day 2 brought to us warmer weather and a wonderful prayer walk of the island.  Our walk took us to the port,basketball courts and then to a lookout pier.  It has been an awesome day 2.  We have bible study tonight at the house.  Pray that the people that come will be touched by the Holy Spirit.  Also that we would be a blessing to them and our Host the Graysons.  Well here are some pics enjoy!

Thank you again for your continued prayers.  The St. Kitts team made it. We had an amazing trip.  A few of us had great opportunities to share Christ.  Pray that the seed would go deep into their Hearts and lives. Arrival in St. Kitts was amazing. We flew trough immigration and got through customs without paying a cent!  Thank you Jesus. It was a great day capped off by a free concert on a cruise ship. So we are all off to bed.  Tomorrow we will be going on a prayer walk of the island.  Thank you and I will post some pics in the A.M.  Again thanks for the prayers!

Thank you all so much for your prayer support.  The St. Kitts team is getting very excited to see what God is going to do.  We have had a few Skype calls with Brandon to see how things are going and every time he has a positive outlook on the vision God has placed on Him.  The team will be be getting together every week for Skype calls, team building exercises, prayer meetings, and fellowship with each other.  Continue to keep us in your prayers as the tricky weather is creating some sickness within the team.  Pray God will heal quickly and rejuvenate our spirit.  Again thanks for your continued prayers.  Check back weekly for more updates.

With Him- Brent Vaught
