We made it! Of course, with just a 35 minutes drive we weren't too worried about getting here. We arrived to this beautiful old church on Woodward. (Metropolitan Methodist Church- check it out on Google Street view!) We set up in our rooms, and had a tour of the place. We'll be happy if we don't get too lost all week. This place is huge! There's a basement and 4 floors above. Our boys are all the way on the 4th floor (showers in the basement) and the girls are sharing a room on the 2nd floor with some girls from Atlanta.
Before dinner we had meetings, leaders and youth separate. We will be serving in 2 separate groups this week. One group (12 of us) will be working on homes in the community, painting, clearing gutters, fixing up yards, and whatever else needs to be done. The other 8 of us will be working in a lunch ministry on Monday at another church, then Tuesday-Thursday working right here at Metro Church at their kids summer camp program.
After dinner (spaghetti) we had a devotional service and some church time after. 'Lights out' time is almost here so I can't write too much more, but we're all very excited about being here and serving God this week. We appreciate your prayers!
