Crisfield 2- the first day traveling

Couldn't have asked for a better day to travel.  Great weather.  Easy Roads.  Some construction going through Chicago and Ohio, but nothing unbearable.  

We met at the church this morning at 6:00am.  Rob and Krissy met us there and led devotions and it was emphasizing the Cloud of Witnesses (that's you!) that go with us on these trips in one way or another.  

We are a smaller team this time.  Only eight people for most of the trip, but Dale K. is going to meet us there, work with us for a couple days, and then head back to Slidell where he has to lead a team of volunteers coming from Ireland to help in New Orleans/Slidell.  The team this time is Rod Sc., Rod St., Howard, Lewis, Ron, Matthew, Bob, and Carolynn (The Colonel).  I think it is going to be a good team of like minded people working together for God's glory to help people get back into their homes.  

I was told that our work assignments could come from three different houses:  #1 needs cabinets and laminate flooring.  #2 needs spackle.  #3 needs framing and flooring.  We'll see what they end up giving us to do.  

Thank you to everyone who is praying for us.  And a big thank you to the people that helped us get our crowd funding goal met.  With a smaller team, we should be able to help buy more of the materials  and donate some good money to the agency we are working with.  

Thank you for letting us share our story with you.

Peace!

Rod
