Today was our first day at the park.  We had several kids come to see what was going on after setting up the two bouncers and serving up snow cones.  This event was simply an opportunity to promote the bible camp that we will be doing for the rest of the week.  The actual camps start tomorrow.

I was at Subway tonight getting something to eat for Parker.  The girl behind the counter was being so sweet to him and adding everything he could think of to his sandwich.  It looked like a true Dagwood when she got done with it.  As I checked out she asked me if I wanted a Subway card.  I explained that I wasn’t from around here and probably would not use it.  She asked where we were from and we told her KY.  She asked why we were here and I explained we were helping a local church.  After a minute or two of discussion about our mission she said, “That sounds great.  I have been looking for a church.” I said, “Your not LDS? (Mormon).”  She said, “No.”  I high-fived her!   I was able to give her Bro. Mickie’s information and website.  In this area of 95% Mormon saturation, that was a rare encounter.

Please pray for our team.  We are very tired and need strength and patience as we continue.  Also, pray for divine encounters in the next few days as we begin to engage the community through our bible camps.

Thanks for all of your prayers.  We feel the effects!
