Our Mission Comes to an End






























































This morning, we started our day with scrambled eggs, biscuits and gravy. Then the guys and Jessie Lynn went to the job site while the rest of us stayed at the mission center to clean. After dinner of oven fried chicken, mashed potatoes, spinach, green beans, and corn this evening, Jon had awards to give everyone. Alex received the fiberglass award - some fiberglass insulation with a bottle of Calamine lotion to go with it. Jessie Lynn received the drill baby drill award for her help in putting up drywall this week. Jansen received the scraping award. Jessica received the shampoo and bright smile award. Jim received the persistence and perspiration award. Lisa received the gardening award. Kellie received the map award to help guide her through the city of New Orleans. Dr. Larry received the mud man award. Scott received the measuring award. Jo received the best cook award. Larry received the party animal award.

We shared our last "Where Did You See God Today" session. Then we went to the church sanctuary for a discussion of I Corinthians 13 about love. We shared in communion.

This trip has been a trip about love - love for the friendship we have for one another - love for the people in New Orleans - love for helping fellow man. This mission trip has also made us aware of the fact that we see God every single day of our lives - sometimes in the least expected places. Perhaps this is a question we should all ask ourselves each day - Where Did YOU See God Today?
