I love our team! Traveling with these young adults is a total pleasure! Conversation has been both lighthearted at times and meaningful. It’s been a very pleasant trip thus far.

Praise God for ample drivers to share the load and for his provision of safety! We’re resting in Birmingham, AL for the night and plan to make it to Covington, LA in time for lunch with the Wattersons.

Please continue to pray for great team bonding and safety. (The rest of our team is flying tomorrow afternoon.)
