Home :)

Great week, now we're home.  Thanks for all the prayers, I'll be blogging about some of the adventures soon.

Sat morning

Finished cleaning the building, we go and tutor 3rd and 4th graders at the public school from 10am-12am.  The 'PLAN,' and I use that term loosely, is to be on the road by 12:30 and stop in Lex for lunch, then home.  

Ask your youngins to tell you allllll about it.

Fri Night

Um....I need some dynamite please.  It's pretty much the only way I'm getting your kids out of here tomorrow.

Fri Late Afternoon

We're pretty much done, just have to clean things and we'll be good to go.  They worked really well today and at about 2:30 we all went to the park to play with the kids and everyone played with the kids until we got rained out at about 4:30.  Why yes, we all DID get soaked.  

I do have to brag on our girl Kim again today, she was walking up to any kid and parent possible at the park and inviting them to church tonight...amazing.  Khaki and Christina went with one of the State Ave Church folks to walk kids home and meet their parents.  

Right now we are all preparing for dinner, then church, our devos, and SHOWERS!!!

Everyone is still amazed by last night....wow!!!

Thursday Night

WOW, what just happened?  Oh yeah...God just moved. 

Thursday Afternoon

Adam took Kim, little Justin, Andy, Tyler, Rachel, and Michaela to the school for mentoring and all of them were dominated in Scrabble for the most part.  The rest of us stayed at the State Ave Church to work finishing some various projects.  Khaki, Christina, Heath, and Ty grouted in the kitchen.  Lori, Hunter, Jonathan, Gavin and Caitlin finished mudding drywall.  Kenzie, Nate, Wes, and Kaely finished the office (laid lamenant and painted).   Kaitie and Ethan routed those little wood thingys to go around the floorboard and the rest of us cleaned, cleaned tools, and carried them all down four flights of stairs to the trailer and that was all done before 11am.

At 11:30 we left for the Reds game, in which they won 8 - 6, so that's great!!! Also we kind of upgraded our $7 upper deck tickets to right on the field down the 3rd base line.  

Right now it's 4:30 and we're chillin until LaRossa's pizza gets here, then it's church for the kids of the neighborhood.  

Also, we may be home a little later on Saturday as well, more like 4 or later.  The people in charge of the mentoring program (a public school no less) have asked if we could stay for a special 2 hour mentoring program on Sat. from 10-12.  A fun fact of this situation is that the school was VERY apprehensive about letting 'high school students from Kentucky' participate in this program.  Yesterday we were requested to stay for the longer session on Saturday, so that speaks well.  

Thursday Morning


A group goes to mentor this morning, then it's off to the Reds game, will blog more later.

Our worship leader had to go home, so I'm off the bench for tonight.
