Late Night on the 3rd!
We arrived back from fireworks 30 minutes ago and just finished devotions. Tonight's blog will be posted in the morning. All are still among the living.

The Last Day...
Friday, July 5th...the last full day of our mission trip experience to Columbus, Nebraska We planned to get up early enough to drive nearly an hour to Fremont, NE to work on a project for a woman in hospice care. I was awakened by some early morning storms and rain (yes...I often am up at 5 a.m.). Barb came up and found me in the meditation room and shared that she had received word that the woman had died peacefully in the night. The contractor who was coordinating the repair effort said also because of the rain and not having all the supplies on hand yet, we shouldn't plan to come today. It was a sad moment for us all, but it did allow for some folks to sleep a little later. We began the process of assessing our options, contacting our local coordinators for alternatives. In the end, I talked Pastor Joe into letting us tear out the water damaged support framing under the stairs and landing. Connor, Kate, and I tore out the old and put in new supports with help from Barb. Now...
Keeping us on the edge of our seats...
