We made it through the last days of work with smiles on our faces. The bakery helped us celebrate by pulling us out from behind the counter to share with us some lovely cakes they made! They invited our team of CO students at our Bi-Lo to join and even some of the other ladies we work with. On the last day, we jumped in the pool with our work clothes (photos to come soon).
Last week I also passed our fitness test running alongside Sara while quoting some bible verses in my head and praying aloud together. I just really felt god's strength through it all. I pray that I really rely on him every time I get out there to run and just run through him.
The last week of LP we had return training! Lots of old friends stopped in so it was good to see friends from last year and other PC students. We cleaned up project and finished up worship and made it out with a smile on our faces to be home in the comfort of our own beds without bedbugs and nice, clean showers. Saturday morning I played soccer with CO Minnesota for the last time which was so awesome to grow in community with them. I was so thankful for that this summer and having some people to enjoy being on the pitch with.
The last few days of project were hard and tiring with meeting after meeting and talk after talk but I made it through! Unfortunately I got sick Saturday night and 3 days later I'm still roughing a stomach bug in bed. Prayers for good health so I can start fitness again!
And another side note--I was able to pick my car up from the shop after a 3-4 week body repair.Thankful that insurance paid the $5000+ for the wreck with a big fat $0 beside customer pay. And I even got a chance to ride a moped! . Dreams do come true... (:
Here's a few photos I have with many more to come!
Last day spent with the Gravley's. I can't thank them enough for their service to us in SO many ways.
