Thursday

Last day! Wow, wasn't it just Sunday? This week has just flown by.  We were all excited but also sad that it was our last day today. We felt like we were just getting started and now it's time to go. We've made new friends, seen God working through lots of people and shared our love with others.

As it's after midnight when I'm writing this, and I need to get up at 6:00 to pack, this blog post will be short.  Please know you will hear more of our stories of the week on Sunday.

The Salts (Jeff, Caitlin and Drew) enjoyed their last day of working with the kids at the Boys and Girls Club. It was difficult to say good bye to them after spend the past 4 days getting to know them. They even stayed longer at their site today trying to say good bye.

The Ones got to serve meals at Our Daily Bread; once again so amazed at the gratitude of those being served. We are all very appreciative for what we have. We even got some hugs from some kids as we were leaving. And we only served them 2 days!

A Youthworks tradition is a community cookout. In all my experiences I've never seen a community cookout like this. I'd say we served at least 100 people outside of the Youthworks group from the neighborhoods. Our youth and kids from the area ate and played together. It was such a blessing to continue to serve, even at our meal time.

You should be very proud of the wonderful disciples our youth are. I was honored to be serving alongside of them this week.

Thank you for your continued prayers, and we'll be home tomorrow!
