God is Good, All the time.
After 7 hours of travel everyone arrived safe and sound. I was placed in the second grouping of vans/cars 5,6, 7,8 and truck. We had some very interesting incidents with flying animals. One nearly missed van 7, and then the truck had an unfortunate incident with a pigeon. We shall keep the memories of that poor bird in our prayers. Most of the travel went fairly smoothly, until we arrived to an accident. Our travel team was the first group to arrive, and we were towards the first 1/2 mile of the stopped traffic. It took about an hour to travel that half mile. After passing the scene, everyone could not stop thinking about the people that were involved in the accident. There were at least 4 ambulances and a helicopter that were on the scene. We are all praying for the recovery of those that were involved with the accident.
After arrival we unloaded the truck with what seemed to be a never ending line of people. Set up beds, ate baked potatoes, got the lay of the land, found out work teams, then off to bed. The adults stayed up to figure out the work sites and plan out the events for tomorrow.
Please keep everyone in your thoughts and prayers, and I assure you that wonderful Monday stories are to come ahead!
All the time, God is good!
