The Episcopal Church of the Transfiguration youth group from North Dallas blogs live from their environmental mission trip to Cozumel, Mexico, where they'll assist sea turtles that come ashore annually to lay their eggs.

 

Today we went to the humane society to help build and paint some boards to put up before the hurricane. Before we could get started though we played with the cutest puppies and kittens!! They were so sweet! We also walked a bunch of dogs too.

Well we painted about 16 or more boards front, back, and all the sides. We painted all those twice, once with a sealer then with the actual paint. We had to trade off people every 10 minutes or so because it was so hot. But it was worth it because we really wanted to help protect the shelter from the hurricane.

That took up our whole day from 10 AM to 5 PM but it was worth it for the in between time of falling in love with the puppies and kittens. I'm more of a cat person and completely fell in love with two twin kittens that I really wanted to take home. And I couldn't help but fall in love with a puppy we named bear. She was so sweet and had the cutests markings.

 After our long day of hard work we made some amazing dinner of spaghetti, salad, fruit, guacamole, and for dessert rice cream. Yummy!Tongue out

Right now Lisa, Sarah, and Wes are out helping the turtles. They were all really excited and were hoping to see some baby turtles like last nights group did.

Okay so tomorrow we are cleaning up some beaches, helping out with the Spanish-English school, viewing the ruins and share some devotions, and see a butterfly sanctuary. Sounds busy but im really excited it all sounds amazing!!

 Stay tuned for my blog on what happens tomorrow!
