Well it's official. We are all down here in High Island, safe and sound. Praise God for opening up the interstate on the way down and for safe travel for all of us.
Last night, the first batch of us arrived here in the retreat center and were pleasantly surprised. The house was large enough to fit the 22 of us here and after a few hours of cleaning, it looked very good. Besides my being disappointed by the terribly out of tune piano, everything was better than we could have asked for.
Then, moving on to today, this morning we woke up at 7ish and kicked it off by going to a baptist church around 15 minutes away from our retreat center. We put on a shorter show here, around 15 minutes for the small church population of around 35 I would guess. The people, like normal had never seen anything like it and were very impressed, hopefully the show will draw more people to our camp starting at 9 Monday morning.
After that, we came back for some lunch, relaxed for a few and then head off again to the surf shop of Sarah Standridge, who has been running publicity for us down here in the past few weeks. After another short show where we all had our flip flops on, we learned about an opportunity to do a show at a VBS camp down here, which we went to again at 5:30 to put on another short demonstration trying to get more kids at the camp starting tomorrow.
And then dinner :-) it was spagetti, probably my favorite. We then moved on to playing some cards and random games around the table trying to rest up for the camp tomorrow. I don't know about the rest of the team, but I know I am very excited for the camp tomorrow and for the chance to minister to the kids down here.
Hopefully ill have more pictures tomorrow.
