Spirit Movement Tour 2010 Day 6

Day 3 at the worksite. By the end of the day inside and outside projects are nearing the finishing phase. The fence is done, the planters are done, the sun shades are in process. The replacement cabinets were delivered and assembled today and the materials moved from the old cabinets and organized. Then the old cabinets were taken apart as they were falling down anyway. The dark blue wall is painted, but some areas need touch up/second coat.

The family of one of the clients brought us pizzas for lunch! The mom wrote us a wonderful card, which I’ll transcribe here:

Because of your hearts, the work of your hands; the efforts that you have exhibited we Thank You! We pray a special blessing upon each one of you. Know that you have made a difference. You are His hand extended.
God Bless
Sincere Thanks
Luke 9:24
If you try to hang onto your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for My sake, you will save it.

Matt read it aloud to the students after lunch and they were touched as well.

A bit of fun was had on the worksite as well – the students ganged up on Kenny and “mudded” him. We had to hose him off. Good thing we had the water all ready from washing the back of our bus.

After work we went to a large indoor pool facility for some wet fun. They had a water slide and diving boards. The students and adults really enjoyed it! THEN we came back to home base for some AMAZING lasagne & garlic bread. And our "usual" two desserts. Berry cobbler after dinner and ice cream later. It was “dress up” night – which doesn’t mean formal, but rather goofy/fun. The students are VERY creative!

Our worship tonight was about “The Journey” and we used some songs from the band Journey. Fun! During their free time, the students had a “rave” (so I guess they weren’t tooooo tired...) But they were tired enough to cooperate and go to bed on time. Thanks be to God!
