January 1 Gulf Coast Trip

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

Last evening we had two new years celebrations: one for east coast new year's and then central new years. For our east coast we had a basketball dropping from the ceiling at the stroke of midnight. Both new years we had a sparkling apple juice toast. Mixed in with that were some games of "Spoons". It was a enjoyable evening.

We woke up and a few people headed over to the church we have been working on and continued working. The others stayed at Tammny Oaks and helped clean the building for worship. We then worshipped with the Tammny Oaks family and then headed to the French Quarter in New Orleans for lunch. It was a nice afternoon.

We then came back to the building and had a "devotional/reflection time". It was a wonderful time of spirited worship and reflection. Now we're having Pappa Johns for dinner....

This has been a great week of service and building community. The trip isn't over yet and is just about to begin for some who will be joining us on Tuesday.

We covet your prayers....

More tomorrow.
