So-Long Sunday

On the road again. We hate to see this week come to an end, but we're also anxious to see our families and homes again.

This morning we gathered by the pool with sleepy eyes for breakfast at 7:00 (items we bought yesterday at Walmart). We had our final worship service and then returned to our rooms to get our bags.

We started loading bags at 8:00 and got on the road at 8:30. We said goodbye to Megan before we left since her family met us there and will be staying on South Padre for a few days. Megan's sister and dad are looking forward to joining us on next year's trip.

On the buses we distributed Affirmation Bags. All through the week everyone has been writing notes to each other and dropping them in bags we all decorated. It was a powerful blessing to read those cards this morning.

On the bus, some are catching up on sleep while others are playing games and talking. We'll stop in Refugio for lunch.

At this time we expect to arrive at the church around 4:30. I'll post a better estimate after lunch.
