Day 4 - Work Projects and Preparation for English Camp

Today we worked at Massama church finishing the projects that needed to be completed. We ate lunch, and then went to Convento de Mafra - a famous monastery and palace.  We then went to an ocean town near Mafra. For dinner we ate with some youth leaders from the Loures church. We will be running the English Camp and Summer Youth Camp with them next week, and talked through the schedule with them.

I really liked going to Mafra to learn more of Portugal’s history. I liked going to the ocean and smelling the ocean too.

Elizabeth, for the team
