We had our bon voyage party here on Saturday. I feel blessed to have had so many wonderful people here to say goodbye to us. It makes me appreciate the way our lives touch those of others. Sometimes we get so caught up in all the busyness of life and forget how much other people make a difference in just knowing them, just loving them and having them near our hearts. So this is a big thank you to everyone who came here to spend those last precious moments with us. We love you and will hold you in a special place forever.
We drove the RV to church yesterday so that we could share with our church family the vision we have for our journey. It was an amazing experience to feel so much support and love from people that we had really just begun to get to know. Pastor Bonnie, that dear women shared our story from the pulpit and allowed us to come forward to share our vision for the crusade. She then asked people to come forward to lay hands on us and pray for our safety and blessing. It was overwhelming and very touching.
Many people were able then to come out to the parking lot and tour the RV in order to gain insight as to how we will live on the road. Again I can not say enough wonderful things about the people at Red Run thank you all for loving us in all this craziness. We will honor you and God with this journey.
By the way we are really getting down to the wire here with three days to go before we leave. We got a truck to pull behind the RV. Nice truck with a glitch or two in the towing department. It will work out though as John is on the job. I love that man. He has been so amazing these last few weeks. It's like he is reborn in his "retirement". I am so happy for him and the freedom he is having.
I really have so much to do that I can't even think straight but it will get done and soon enough we will be gone. We just feel so much love in all of this.
