Clifford (the big red van), Sully (the big blue van) and Wendy's van (probably needs a better name, now accepting suggestions) made it to Chico, CA with some adventures for the big vans along the way. I hear there was much Disney sing-a-long in Clifford, and have been told there might even be video evidence. Wendy's van proved the point that travelling with fewer people goes faster, and tested the distances one could go between bathroom stops managing to only arrive an hour and a half after the big vans despite the significant lead they were given (one youth had an obligation that ran late Saturday so arrangements were made accordingly to accommodate).

We were all blessed with travelling mercies despite some crazy drivers on the road, and settled down for the night. Highlights included a fashion show with the Neighborhood Youth dress up clothes, reconnecting with the Wrzesinski family (their youth group is headed home from Gleanings and staying at the same church), Uno Dare (there might be video evidence of this as well) and walks on the Neighborhood church grounds.

Our living space is being shared by a very noisy cricket that thought it a good idea to jump on poor unsuspecting Zoe and KK… but they have just… err… removed it from the premises, so maybe now we will get some sleep!

Tomorrow we will grab breakfast then head up to Paradise to pray for the community, then church back in Chico with our friends at Neighborhood Church and on the road to Gleanings!

Pray for the team to work well together, praise for safety this far, and prayers for servant hearts!

Wendy
