First, a big thank you to the folks who gave us the send-off this Sun. AM. It was real early (Yawn!!!) and your presence was appreciated. A special thanks to Dawne for her prayerful reminder of the purpose of our mission. God was riding shotgun and we arrived without any issues. Needless to say, but I must in my "official" capacity, that Ms. Su K. was her usual self (I hesitate to say "normal" because that wouldn't capture the truth. She brought homemade choc chip cookies to perhaps "buy" some silence but the truth will eventually come to light. More on this later, I'm sure. There seemed to be a lot of raucous laughter from the rear of the bus, but i wasn't able to takes names BUT JJ was seated at the back. Think there might be any relationship? Bill K. kept good attendance recors on and off the bus but at the last count we had one more than we stated with. This number is yet to be reconciled. Orienation went fine except for the few that slept through it but they'll pick it up. For all my good efforts I've drawn KP tomorrow. We have no real duties yet assigned but that will come Mon. AM. You'll see your reps hard at work Sun. night eating chicken and pizza and playing games. Did I see some money changing hands? Or, was this all in the spirit of camaraderie? Most assuredly it was the latter. We will have fun but more importantly it will be fun doing God's work. look for the next report!
