Dear Maplewood Friends,
Wow, you have every reason to be proud of these kids. They stepped up and helped with music for the church service on Sabbath and we will also be doing the whole worship service next Sabbath. Following the church service we traveled to see the Yahoo Falls, the highest falls in Kentucky. It was quite an adventure of driving over mountain roads. We came upon three car accidents, and we immediately prayed for the victims. At one of the accidents we waited in a line of traffic as the victim was airlifted out by helicopter.
We finally made it to the falls and hiked in the Appalachians to see them. It was great to be outside in God's nature. It was a beautiful day with temperatures in the 60s. When we returned we celebrated three birthdays--Merlyn Gottfried, Jacob Guptill, and Christine Haefner. They all have birthdays this week.
Today, Sunday, we left early for a day of rock climbing--the kids did great. They worked together and cheered each other on as they worked through the different climbing opportunities. Many pictures were taken. It was fun!!!
We are working on Week of Prayer for tomorrow. WE will be with 17 kids in k-6 for the week and share Old Testament characters with them through the music, skits, spoken word, and activities. Annie Hanson, Jervon Niska, Taylor Engel, Melissa Ratter, and Tessa Garmaker are the speakers.
Tomorrow we start work on the house and hospital projects.
Thanks for your prayers and support. I will be in touch later.
