We made it!


Today we landed in New Orleans and it was pretty cool experience coming to New Orleans. We hand to meet at the church parking lot at 4:00 am, and I only got 2 hours of sleep. On the planes, I attempted to sleep and I was somewhat successful. When we landed in New Orleans, we collected all the bags while Shelly, Don, Randy, Jane and Paul got the vans. What was weird was that Shelly’s bag got sent to Washington and so she has been trying to deal with that. Besides that, on the way to the church we are staying at, we had to see a lot of New Orleans. We got to the church, some what settled in, looked at the church. A bit later, myself, Don, Jane, Mandy and Paige went to Sav-A Market to get food supplies. It was fun and got a lot of food. We came back and I was apart of the cooking team and that was pretty fun as well. We made a salad, pasta, and baked some bread. Besides this, the neighborhood we are staying at is very beautiful and houses I have never seen before. There are some houses that are still being built on the block. We will see what happens tomorrow. I cannot wait. Also, there is this one café house that is pretty interesting looking. It is a house that is a café house. I will hopefully get to visit it some time this week.

Randy's Spirit Talk group met tonight and we held him and all of you in our prayer. We are with you in spirit.

Glad you made it without too much trouble. Hope that Shelly's luggage shows up! We announced the info about the blog again at church yesterday, so hopefully folks will be following your progress as you go along.
What a sacrifice to get up that early!
Good luck with your work this week. We will be thinking about you!
