Thursday - YES! Program

Destination:YES! Program, Epcot

Scripture for the day:1 Corinthians 12:12-13

For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For in the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.

 Indeed, the body does not consist of one member but of many. If the foot were to say, ‘Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body’, that would not make it any less a part of the body. And if the ear were to say, ‘Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body’, that would not make it any less a part of the body. If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole body were hearing, where would the sense of smell be? But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose. If all were a single member, where would the body be? As it is, there are many members, yet one body. The eye cannot say to the hand, ‘I have no need of you’, nor again the head to the feet, ‘I have no need of you.’ On the contrary, the members of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, and those members of the body that we think less honorable we clothe with greater honor, and our less respectable members are treated with greater respect; whereas our more respectable members do not need this. But God has so arranged the body, giving the greater honor to the inferior member, that there may be no dissension within the body, but the members may have the same care for one another. If one member suffers, all suffer together with it; if one member is honored, all rejoice together with it.



NOTE: Posting a bit earlier than normal today - more photos and God sightings will be added after we finish evening devotionals. - JLH

 God Sightings: *Pending!*

The Report:

After a late night at our service project, we were up early to make it to our YES program at Epcot. The YES (Youth Education Series) program we did was focused on teambuilding, and community focus, and is one of the most anticipated parts of the trip. The youth did an awesome job participating today, and our facilitator was (as usual) excellent. 

After our YES program, when we were at Epcot, we took some time to sit down in the shade and do a bit of processing of our service project last night. It was another chance to take some time out of our busy schedule and focus on God. 

The heat was broken up by thunderstorms this afternoon, which was nice for two reasons - one, the temperature was a lot better afterwards, and two, EPCOT has a lot of great rain activities. We're nearing the middle of our week, and are planning a more leisurely morning after our quick turnaround today.

As always,thank you for your prayers and for following along with our adventures!
