Better late then never....

At the request of Becca.....



I can not believe how busy I've been this past month. I'm struggling to remember the last time I had time to myself. I returned from Slidell last week and have been on the go ever since and never really had a chance to post anything about it.

What an experience it was! I really got to see God moving in awesome and amazing ways while I was down there. The work was long and hard but the pay-off was sooo worth it. There was 19 of us from Calvary Fellowship on our team. We drove down in 3 vans and 2 cargo vans. I was in the van that just happend to blow a tire in the middle of the night. The driver managed to put on the spare donut while a police officer managed to supervise him the whole time. We were detained only for a while. We were able to have the tire replaced in a jiffy the next morning. We stayed at Faith Bible Church on cots in the sancturary for the week. We worked from 8:30 am to 5 pm or later with only a break for lunch, mostly hanging drywall and spackling. My body would ache at the end of the day for a while. We showered at a local athletic club The food that was served to us for dinner was delicious and we spent the wee hours before we turned in playing speed scrabble, or dominos, or oh "heck". We met some really awesome people while we were there. I must admit that I really miss it a lot. Every time I do mission work my heart is most joyful. I feel the most content. I wouldn't mind going again soon if I could make it fly with my schedule.

Anyway....I hope all had a Merry Christmas!! Have a Happy New Year!
