Friendship Club Presentation - This Friday, 8/8, 9:45 am
Our presentation to the Friendship Club is THIS Friday, August 8. Be in the Life Center by 9:45 am to prepare for our presentation.
The Friendship Club supported our Mission Trip with prayers, cards and even money gifts. This Friday we will thank them for their support and we will give them a feel for how things went on the trip.
The time of our presentation has moved earlier than first thought, so the time to show up (9:45) is earlier than you heard before. A pizza lunch will follow our presentation and you should be done and ready to go home by 12:30.
See you Friday.

Questionnaire for Parents of Mexico Mission Trippers
In addition to getting feedback from those who went on the Mexico Mission Trip last week, we'd also like to get feedback from parents on the topics that impacted them. Our plan is to take those comments to make next year's Mission Trip even better.
If you are a parent to a Mission Tripper, please download the questionnaire from one of the links below, complete it and email back to me (kurt@biblestoriesforadults.com) or turn in the completed form to Cindy's drawer in the Student Center:
New Photos and Videos Have Been Posted
New photos and videos have been posted to http://gdlcmmt.4shared.com - and will continue to be posted as they arrive.
Check that photo site often to see when new photos are posted. New directories will be created when new photos are posted so you can just look for new directories instead of digging through folders you have already checked. I won't always post a new blog article when new photos are uploaded.
You will find two new folders: Pics-Andrea and Pics-Dana. Lots of good photos in both.
Look especially for some videos (.mov files) in Pics-Andrea to see walls go up and to see Lauren ride the bull.
Photos of Julia's Foot
Here are four pictures that I have of my foot. I took a lot so that I could get good ones, and these are the best. The two pictures with my foot on a grey background were taken today, so that is what it looks like now. The other two where taken on Sunday night. The one picture with my feet side by side is showing how my foot was swollen. I hope you like them, and I still think my foot looks pretty :)
Visit http://gdlcmmt.4shared.com and go to 80703-JuliasFoot to see the photos

Update from Julia
I thought I might tell you the update on my foot. I did indeed go to the doctor, actually I went to an emergency care place Sunday after dinner because it fit into the schedule better than going to my regular doctor. I got an x ray and my foot is not broken...yeah!!! Thank the Lord... and they just said take Advil, put ice on it, and keep it elevated. Since then, the swelling is mostly gone and the only thing is, it looks really purple, blue, black, and red from all the bruising, and it still hurts, but it will heal and be fine.
So that is what has happened to my foot. If you want you can pass on the email because I do not really have many people's email. Well anyways, I am already missing Mexico and can't wait to go next year!!!
