YMCA, FBA and Clarkston!
Today my folks, Ashley and Jesse and I went to visit our mission teams. Also enjoyed sharing some Indian food with my parents. The owners are from Nairobi! We always enjoy speaking Swahili to them.
We started with our YMCA team at Huntington Creek.
I’ve worked with this team for a couple of years and they’ve been really great! Today was no exception. They were very enthusiastic and you could tell that the kids were really enjoying them!
Also went by to check on Ian North who lives at that complex.
He was busy working on newsletters. He took me to the parking lot to show me something. Flat tire! Bahd luck.
We worked on getting the tire off and putting on the spare. What a hassle in the Georgia heat! I parked my car in the shade so it wasn’t so bad on my folks.
We took the car over to Firestone to see about getting a new set. The ones they had were bald. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters we were able to buy them a new set of tires! Can’t do missions if you can’t get to the mission!
We left Ian at the shop working on his newsletters and went to check on our team at Azalea from First Baptist Atlanta.
They were having a great time and the kids were super excited to have them there. This is a team of four adults who are sleeping at the mission! I had some hesitancy about that idea, it’s not exactly a paradise to live in! So yesterday I was really praying for them! They’re doing fine!
Went to my office at FBC Doraville to pick up the mail, then over to Clarkston to visit with Cathy Palmer and show my parents her great work with the Refugee Sewing Society. Good stuff!
Then to Willow Branch for Jesse’s guitar class with the refugee kids. Jesse is a skilled guitarist and seems to really enjoy helping the kids learn music! My parents enjoyed the tunes too!
Came home and dropped the kids off, then went over to Kroger to do the grocery shopping.
Then home and worked out on weights.
Still have more homework! Always something!
