Ashley and I had fun briefing our team from Carmel BC on Islam and Hinduism today.

Did I mention I love my new globe?
![s](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/Carmel-BC-NC-to-Global-Mall/i-kPMxdFp/0/M/IMG_0612-M.jpg)
Then took them to Al Madina to experience the Middle East.
![g](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/Carmel-BC-NC-to-Global-Mall/i-VrrNJgT/0/M/IMG_0614-M.jpg)
They loved the schwarma.

Ramadan starts Saturday.
And to Global Mall–India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Visited the Shiv Mandir Hindu temple.

![s](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/Carmel-BC-NC-to-Global-Mall/i-wvmBmBb/0/M/IMG_3098-M.jpg)
Then to the missions!

Ashley and I guided the big bus around to the missions. He has to know the route by himself because tomorrow we have three more big buses!
After checking on the teams, I went to Azalea to get the kids to help me with the labels. The summer will be over before we know it.
![s](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/Carmel-BC-NC-to-Global-Mall/i-FTnRh9s/0/S/IMG_3156-S.jpg)
![j](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/Carmel-BC-NC-to-Global-Mall/i-BxTbT46/0/M/IMG_3157-M.jpg)
It was great to be there with them. Made me really miss hanging out with my kids.
After we completed the labels, I got doughnuts for the kids. They always love that!
![s](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/Carmel-BC-NC-to-Global-Mall/i-5rXB2MS/0/M/IMG_3159-M.jpg)
Then the most complicated part of my day began. I had eight missions and had to figure out the route for a 55 foot bus. Difficult to take right turns and VERY difficult to turn around. So I went up a lot of streets looking for wide open areas that the bus could use. Really aren’t many of those, so decided to have him go back on 85. I’m having him make a couple of loops rather than retrace steps.
Finally got home around 9:30pm. Long day, Jack!
Admin duties now.
Got a lot of editing to do but too tired to do it.
Perhaps the biggest single team of the Summer starts tomorrow. About 160 people made up of families from Hattiesburg. Looking forward to that.

Ashley and I briefed our teams on Catholicism today.
![a](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/FBC-Moultrie-Shades-Mountain3/i-KVxdHPs/0/M/IMG_2926-M.jpg)
We had our commencement service where we pass the baton and say, “It’s up to ME!”
![t](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/FBC-Moultrie-Shades-Mountain3/i-LgvDwX2/0/M/IMG_6693-M.jpg)
Then they sign the Landing Pad!
![l](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/FBC-Moultrie-Shades-Mountain3/i-K4sS3jj/0/M/IMG_2934-M.jpg)
The leaders liked the Golden Eggspectations eggs.
![e](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/FBC-Moultrie-Shades-Mountain3/i-8XvRjvx/1/M/IMG_2918-M.jpg)
Over to Plaza Fiesta to explore its wonders.
![p](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/FBC-Moultrie-Shades-Mountain3/i-L8wLp7t/0/M/IMG_6703-M.jpg)
![d](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/FBC-Moultrie-Shades-Mountain3/i-x9bs7Qs/0/M/IMG_2991-M.jpg)
I was given a Diet Coke with my name on it. Wow.
I mean out of all the names out there they gave that one to me. Pretty groovy.
Ashley and I then rushed back to the church to start work with a new team from Carmel Baptist Church. They seem to be a really great group!
After the briefing, we took them over to Asian Square. They loved it.
Then on to their first round of missions. We started to late to get more than one site in.
![n](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/FBC-Moultrie-Shades-Mountain3/i-kNPV9VB/0/M/IMG_3069-M.jpg)
Ash and I shot pictures and video.
Went to Jesse’s house to put together the Mobi-cool and try it out with ice inside. It was astonishingly cool. I think that’s really going to work well to cool off a room.
![m](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/FBC-Moultrie-Shades-Mountain3/i-7nZcMTm/1/M/IMG_3072-M.jpg)
Then back home to work on admin duties. Finally made it home after 9:00pm.

I introduced them to my Aepyornis or Elephant Bird egg. It was around 10 foot tall and weighed over 800 pounds. They were killed out of Madagascar about 1,000 years ago.

![g](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/Shades-Mountain-BC-to-BHFM-AZ/i-vBkMjkg/0/M/IMG_2693-M.jpg)
Home now for admin duties.
Sent a letter to the tax commissioner. They forgot to put the sticker on the card they sent me. They’ll get it right next time. Maybe.
![s](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/Shades-Mountain-BC-to-BHFM-AZ/i-ZJzPmhz/0/M/IMG_2697-M.jpg)
Gas prices have gone up about .20 in the last two weeks. YOW!
![s](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Other-1/Shades-Mountain-BC-to-BHFM-AZ/i-smdndGC/0/M/IMG_2694-M.jpg)
I just learned 89 names in just under an hour. I need to work on how I do the picture with the name tag so I can do it the most effectively.
Beautiful sunset!

I love my church because of writing on the bulletin board like this.
![b](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Partners/CIBC-62214/i-75FBRBw/0/M/IMG_2502-M.jpg)
K and I ate lunch at Kathmandu Grill and watched the World Cup.
Came home to rest.
Watched the USA vs. Portugal match. Great game.
Enjoyed watching the end of Capt. Phillips with Kathy this evening.
Need rest before the big group tomorrow.
This was a beautiful hibicus, until the squirrels ate it.

Worked on cleaning my carpets today. Took longer than usual because the unit I rented malfunctioned. Had to take it back and get another.
I pre-treat the stains with oxyclean and scrub with a stiff broom.
![s](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Something-Different/Cleaning-62014/i-cD7SCRr/0/M/IMG_2460-M.jpg)
Then come back with the carpet cleaner.
![c](http://whirlwindmissions.smugmug.com/Something-Different/Cleaning-62014/i-LDbcwvJ/0/M/IMG_2462-M.jpg)
Looks better.

Also picked up another light for my Venus Fly Traps.
Edited the video I shot for the Atlanta Chinese Christian Church North West.
Rained hard for about twenty minutes.

Took them Al Madina.

Came home to work on a portable AC unit for Ashley. It involves using a fan to blow air into a cooler through cold bottles. Then cutting a couple of vents to release the air.
