One of those days when I floored it and hung on for the ride!

Started out this morning in Clarkston where my team from Florida and Alabama are painting Clarkston International Bible Church.  Plans didn’t go 100% since the keys weren’t there to let them in.

While they were waiting to get in, one of my best partners, Terry Earl, showed up and asked them if they’d like to come with her to visit some families.  The girls were delighted to do that and had a fun morning seeing moms with little kids.

The church is coming along well, but we still need a lot of help to get it looking really good.

I had a lunch meeting with the property managers in Chamblee and Doraville.  We listened to Doraville’s Police Chief John King share his vision for law and order in the International Village.

It’s hard to find the line between the need merchants have for labor and the letter of the law against illegal immigration.

Basically came down to “We’re going to deport every criminal we find.”  Fair enough.

I took the last of the food from the meeting over to Azalea Place for the kids to chow down on.  I brought back a big portion of fried rice and sesame chicken.

My team from FBC Bonifay is doing great!  They made these sled things they were pulling kids around on.  Looked like a lot of fun.

Of course the snow cones are a HUGE crowd favorite.

The afternoon I spent my time shooting video and pictures of the teams and loving on the people.

Jesse and I went to eat Mexican food this evening. On the way over there I saw this incredible sunset.

This evening is the Planter’s Moon. It’s supposed to look especially big this evening.
