Mission LA: Day 8

6.12.09 / 1:28 p.m.

Good Friday afternoon!  It is hard to believe that our time here in Monroe is almost up, but here it is Friday.  We are here at Moore Fitness Center getting a much needed shower.  Tonight is the final night of V.B.S.  Last night we were up two from Wednesday night for a total of 52.  All went very good last night.  The children are very excited with all that we are doing.  There are mostly smaller children and the love Cooper!  I asked on little boy if he wanted to talk to Cooper and he went up to him and gave him the biggest hug.  It was so sweet.  Our students continue to work hard and do an excellent job.  Tonight we start with a cookout at 5:00 and V.B.S. afterwards.  We have invited family and friends of the children to come and eat.  We hope that this will be an opportunity for the families to be exposed to Landmark Chruch. 

Our plans as of now are to pack up what we can tonight and pull out some time in the morning.  We will travel part of the way and arrive back home on Sunday afternoon.  Continue to pray for our time here and our safety on the highway.  I believe that God is going to do a great work here after we leave.  Pray for the people of Landmark and Tim and Madeline as they lead them.  They have a wonderful group of people who have simply treated us like family!  I hope to make one more post before we get back home, but it may be later tomorrow.  I hope that you have enjoyed keeping up with us as we have been here in Monroe. 

Mark your calendar for June 21 at 6:00 p.m.  We will share about our trip on that Sunday evening.  I hope that you have a great rest of your day.

 Mark for the group
