BCK does the town



The BCK (which stands for Best Christian Kids, aka Bodie-Christian-Kaitlyn) delivered ice cream to all the work teams today. We had a chance to take a look at all the great work that everyone was doing, and we even videoed our visits! Pastor Linda and Miss Cheryl tag along with the group, and are greatly entertained and inspired by all the 10 and 12 year old opinions and insights. The team has been learning a lot about the bayou and marsh region, and looking out for Great Blue Heron, which Pastor Linda really wants to see, and seems to miss. We’ve gone shopping lots of times for food for the group for lunches and breakfasts—how do you figure out how many bananas for 2 days for 42 people? It’s a real art and it’s taken all 5 of us to figure it out. We had a great closing devotion tonight, with Carl leading the prayer songs, and our guitar ‘orchestra’ of Dave, Patty and Rex leading other songs. It’s a big work day tomorrow, with everyone trying to get their jobs done in time. Today there was lots of rain, and lightening with thunder all last night, so there were little lakes all around us when we got up today. Gene and Elaine Hill had to move their trailer because it was in the middle of little lake by morning, with floating fire ant hills. We’re having a great time as a church family! Pastor Linda
