This morning I did a briefing with my team from FBC Salado, TX! They’re a great team!

This is their third time to work with us. PTL for these guy who are extraordinary workers!

They have 40 people working on a massive service project behind/between four apartment complexes in Chamblee/Doraville.

it’s a type of no man’s land that is terrifically overgrown and just flat nasty with trash.

They cleaned up the whole area and will start doing major brush cutting tomorrow.

Pray for Mikey, one of the youngster who sliced his leg on a glass bottle. He’s doing great, but had to have 12 stitches in his leg today. Also for Casey who picked up a dirty old jacket uncovering a nest of yellow jackets. He was stung at least ten times on his arms, hands and neck. He’s doing fine now too.

We haven’t gotten any more word about Lauren, the 11 year old that fell out of the top bunk and had to have brain surgery yesterday. I heard she’s in stable condition but nothing else. Pray for her!

The teams served in the Chamblee and Doraville area and are doing a terrific job!

My team from Clinch River, who I was also supposed to brief at 9am this morning didn’t make it into town until about 5:30 pm. They had a tire blow out on their trailer which caused it to rip off a bumper on the van. They also had a fan belt break. Wow! Spiritual warfare for sure.

I took them over to their four locations off of Roswell Road this evening. They’ve never done any kind of outreach like this before, but they did a terrific job!

I was very proud of them. Their Pastor Keith TIllman was ecstatic about their attitude. “After all they’ve been through, it’s amazing I never heard one complaint!” That’s a Jesus thing for sure!

K and I finally got home around 9pm this evening.

We enjoyed talking to Jesse on his way home. He’s doing great and enjoying New Hampshire. It was in the 70s today. My car said 99 degrees at one point today.

My catch phrase with the teams is, “It’s surprisingly cool in the shade!” That’s what they’re supposed to say if someone mentions it’s hot. You know, it really is surprisingly cool in the shade. . . ark, ark, ark.
