Full speed ahead kinda day!

Started out at Briarcliff Baptist Church for their In As Much service project day. I did a short briefing and training with the teams then took them over to Azalea Place to stripe parking lots, clean the mission and pick up trash from the soccer field in Chamblee. Later that day we hosted block parties at Azalea and at Briarlake Village. Great time was had by all!

Then I went to Huntington Village to off load all the band equipment from the van. Lester and Tito played music and had an Outreach Event with the help of their congregation. I would have loved to play some music with my brothers! But, I had other assignments.

Next was Crosspointe Church where I did a training session with the teams there before leading them over to Cherokee Courts and Olde Salem in Lawrenceville. I had an especially good time there because there was a large group of refugees from Burundi who spoke SWAHILI! That’s the language that I grew up with and is the second language I studied. It was fun to hear it again! I’d like to go back there soon just to get to know them better.

Refugees from Burundi had an especially hard time.

I got home about 9 pm. Mighty tired.

Watched an episode of House with K.

Now I’m compressing and uploading the shots I did to the Photo Gallery, then I’ll capture the video I shot onto my hard disk so I can start editing tomorrow.

Tomorrow morning we go to Briarcliff Baptist Church for their missions fair. I’m supposed to speak for a few minutes. I hope they put me last. Would you want to follow me as a speaker?

Peace.
