I had a great first day with my team from FBC Agricola, MS! This is about the fourth year I’ve worked with this team. They normally come during the summer. They’ve done a fantastic job so far!
I had a briefing with them at FBC Doraville and then sent part of the team on on over to Huntington Ridge to repaint the mission we used to have over there. The other 20 folks I took with me to redo the play area at Wynscape. It’s extremely overgrown and just plain nasty. We collected a bunch of bags of trash and started raking the area up.
Bill Hickey and I went to Lowes where we bought a chainsaw and a weed whacker so they can really start making headway against all the brush. I think the additional gear will be well worth the money!
In the afternoon I took them over to the missions where they’ll be working this week. They be covering Highland Gardens, Azalea Place, Pearl Lane, Briarlake Village, Kensington Station and Oak Forest. The kids at the missions are in for a real treat!
I also went by Peachford Hospital to drop off some art supplies for Jesse to enjoy while he’s in the hospital. We have our first family counseling session Tuesday morning at 11am at the hospital. Ashley will be coming with us too. I’m looking forward to seeing him. Hope he’s not so loaded on tranquilizers this time.
The team from Agricola had a problem with one of their van tires. I took it over to Tires Plus to get a new one.
Also went by our house to get the mail and see our sweet ol’ Sugar dawg. She was glad to see me!
K and I watched Rescue Dawn this evening. Glad I was never a POW. Makes me think even more highly of John McCain. That was some rough stuff.
My computer is still at the Geek Squad at Best Buy. Maybe tomorrow I’ll get it back. What a hassle.
Please keep praying for Jesse’s healing!
