Hello Everyone. Pastor Daven here.

After a few technical issues, we have finally managed to jump onto their network and will be posting photos alongside of our words soon. Today was a wonderful day on the farm. I awoke early for a run watching steam rise off of the local bogs as I ran up hill and over dale. It was quite chilly as we awoke, but early morning sun burned off the chill quickly as we started chores. We helped lead goats and sheep from their evening residence to some pastures for the day. We walked through the global village which has lodgings from all over the world to represent those places and people served by the mission of Heifer. Following lunch we did our first service project which mainly consisted of weeding and watering vegetable beds. This has all been matched by several classroom experiences where we have learned about the distrubtion of population and food across the world, the 12 cornerstones of Heifer and so much more. The food is out of this world, the view equally as spectacular and these young people representing us amazingly well. I can't wait to see what they tell you about from today!
