Exhaustion, Love & Appreciation

Bob Maas, our trip coordinator

Today was our final day, embracing God's people in Carter County, Tennessee. We are totally exhausted physically ... but higher in emotions than you can imagine. God has walked with us every step of this amazing journey. We have felt your prayers during the entire trip.

We can't thank you enough for allowing us to share YOU and your love for others. What an honor! Whatever efforts was made in winterizing and reconstruction of homes was tripled by the appreciation and joy that we received in return. Hats made by St. Matthew's Weir Looms of Love group, Prayer shawls made by Sandy Kelling, and quilts made by the ladies at Bethesda on the Bay Lutheran Church brought tears of joy to so many. Thank you.

Completing a huge project that took us two full days!

We can't wait to come home to share our experiences with each of you personally, and also on Sunday, November 16. Please join us for worship at 9:30, when there will be only one service that day, followed by our annual meeting.

We will see you soon.
