Good evening to everyone who is still following us.  All the groups today went to new work sites so we had a quick orientation and then headed to get to sites by about 9am. A new site today was called Cafe 458, where people come to go through group training to help them get back on their feet or improve their situation.  The kids did food prep and then the people came and sat down restaurant style and the kids took their order and we plated the food and served them and waited on them.  The kids took their lunches and sat with some people that had tables and got to talk with them and converse.  The kids then cleaned everything up.  Other groups went to places that our kids had already been to and were able to see what some of their friends had been up to and experience a little of the same thing themselves.  lt has a been a very different trip than the last couple years with not designated kids club or work projects.  We have a lot of community service time and a lot dealing with people directly.  Just a little different from what we are used to.
After work crews came back there was some free time.  The free time was used for anything from going swimming again, to playing in the park, and a few of us caught up on some running we did not do in the morning and some just wanted to stop and shower and write some more "Hotlantagrams."
For our evening activity tonight we went to Destiny Metro Worship Church.  lt was very different than any service we have ever had at St. Luke's. It was a praise worship and was a little longer than what we are used to.  From all the feedback we have heard from the kids they really enjoyed the service and their attention was held very well by the message that was delivered.  We then came back to our "home" for some shortened club time and then family group time and had some brownies to celebrate Matthew Quintana's birthday.  There are lots of good stories being shared between everyone and l hope that when you see the kids or adults from this trip you get a chance to ask them about this week.  We are all very thankful for the support that we received from everyone in the congregation and relatives.

And now it's time for.........drum roll!............
