Today was day one of traveling for Mission Arlington! We jetted early this morning around 8:00 AM and made it to Mt. Pleasant before girls started crying out for a bathroom break. SO....we kicked in to the Braum's parking lot and it just so happened they were open for lunch. It was muy delicioso!
We arrived at MA (Mission Arlington) and headed out to canvas an apartment complex where a Rainbow Express (Backyard Bible Club) will be held tomorrow. We stopped at a convenience store for a quick liquid break and much to our dismay the ol' faithful FBC step up van would not operate correctly! sad day! after God sent a kind angel to fix it we went on to worship at MA and then on to dinner. BUT....once again the mechanical demon reared its' ugly head and we finally realized that we had an ineffective battery! so we made a quick dash to Wally World RIGHT before the automotive department closed and got a new battery! YEAH!!!
so we went on to dinner. i chose panera bread (i love this place..especially the soft chocolate chip cookies!) others chose taco bueno! then it was on to make our crazy wal mart run and then on to check into homebase here at our hotel. after a brief prep meeting tonight we've headed to our rooms and we're going to get some shut eye.
be praying for God to do great things in us and through us. pray that God would give us eyes and hearts of compassion and mercy. pray for people that we meet to be convicted by the Spirit and turn from a life of darkness to a life of light in Jesus!
see ya tomorrow!
PS....Caleb and Tanner W. say HI to their moms!!
