Gatlinburg 2010 Post #8

Post #8: Thursday, July 1st     12:00PM

The working portion of our mission trip ended just a few minutes ago!  We are now on the way to pick up lunch and then head to the Whitewater Rafting Outpost.  We will be rafting the Pigeon River.  It consists of mainly level 3 and 4 rapids.  After rafting, we will have to rush back to Seymour for the 8PM closing worship service.  That probably means that dinner will be very, very late.

We had a great time on the worksite this morning.  We put a skirt around the entire mobile home and replaced the tire swing for the kids.  We also finished painting the shed and putting the handrail on the steps.  We had a difficult time saying goodbye to the families that we've been spending this week with, but we know that we've impacted their lives in a big way, just by being here and sharing the love of Christ with them.

Now that we're finished with all the work, it's time for some rest.  Off we go to the Pigeon River!  We love and miss y'all, and we'll see you soon!
