First Day in Ban Ho!

We had an incredible first day in Ban Ho, Vietnam! (Click here to see video)

The school, town, everyone were so open to us being there. We were even invited to eat with the teachers and administrators on the first day -- very unusual.

We toured the school and needs they have, saw their town health clinic, starting working on the paving project in front of the school . . .
AND I participated in my first international soccer competition! It was their (very young) teachers against our team. For the record I played an incredible game at goalie (had like 13 saves!), unfortunately the rest of our defense was very spotty and the West lost 3-2.

But an incredible day . . . no pics here (tech issues) but check out the 2 new videos on the Oso Creek website plenty of pics there! (Click here to get to website)

Love the videos, praying for you guys. That place is gorgeous...John, grab one of those shovels or a wheelbarrow and let one of the ladies handle the camera.
Just messing with you.
