Safe and Sound

St. Andrew's UMC youth have arrived to Kentucky safe and sound.  We pulled into Henderson Settlement about 5:15 and got settled into our rooms.  We are on the top floor of the mission dorm and are sharing a room with several other churches. 
Thankfully, we had an uneventful trip up here (its never good to have an eventful "travel day")!
We stopped in Shelby as planned for lunch.  So folks ate at Burger King, some at Arby's, some at Sonic, and some at Wendy's.  Luckily, all 4 were right there together. 
There are a little over 200 work campers here this week, so it is a "tight" week.  Because of the large group, we'll be eating in two shifts.  We will eat first shift Monday thru Wednesday (7:30 am, 11:00 am and 5:00 pm).  Thursday and Friday we'll have second shift meals (8:00 am, 11:30 am, 5:30 pm).

Tomorrow we'll all go see our job sites and begin our work!  Luckily, it is supposed to cool off as the week goes on! 

Tomorrow night, we'll post a synopsis of each job site and what the homes are like that we are working on! 

Below, you'll see the work teams!
Pray for each team and the work they'll be doing this week!
We'll all be getting up around 6:00 am!  I know the youth are going to love that!
