Zeba 2019: Mackinac Island
This group rocks! We are a well oiled, efficient, strong team after six days together. We packed up and left the Ford Center I half hour early and made our way to Saint Ignace I had of schedule. That gave us an extra half an hour at Mackinac Island, which everyone loved. The day turned out picture perfect, 70° and cloudy during the bike ride and sunny while we explored the island. The kids enjoyed the independence of walking around together while the counselors enjoyed a quiet adult dinner.
We are grateful for the generosity of the Saint Ignace United Methodist Church for shelter this evening, we will all sleep very well there!
We look forward to returning to our families on Saturday.
Safe travels to all who are out doing good works from our church this week!
North Dakota 2019: paper plate awards
Good morning! With a bus full of groggy teens and adults, we're on the road for our last leg. Last night in Menomonie we enjoyed a fun dinner and then walked to a nearby park for paper plate awards, given out by the seniors (and then juniors hand out senior awards). Be sure to ask your youth about their award! What a wonderful week it's been - challenging work, unfamiliar conditions, tired muscles - but regardless these youth put those distractions aside to do exceptional work for the community in ND and for each other. Let your loved ones sleep in tomorrow, please! A few more pix to come.
