The last official day of the campaign with the Christ Chapel Bible Church youth was Friday, July 18. When the team headed to the beach for the day, we headed to the airport to catch our flight to Kansas City. Unfortunately for us, there were storms along the east coast so, even though we had no problems getting into Houston, our flight to KC was delayed two hours--11:00 p.m. arrival into KC instead of 9:00 p.m. Originally, my dad was going to pick us up at the airport, but I'm so glad we changed it. I can't image how he would have handled the two hour delay--probably would have tried to sleep in his car in the KCI parking lot. By the time we got to Lee's Summit it was after midnight, but we still managed to talk to the Guenthers for an hour or so before we crawled into bed.
Stephen and two of his brothers worked in a game of golf on Saturday afternoon and then we all went out to dinner (minus Michael and Denise.)
We went to the traditional 8:00 a.m. service at Abundant Life on Sunday morning and then on Sunday afternoon we drove to Topeka to visit with Jeff and Paula Rhoades. It was great to go to church with them and see their home/town.
Stephen drove to Marshall early (5:00 a.m.) Monday morning to have breakfast and play golf with Michael. In the afternoon, he stopped to see our friend, Kimberly Kelley in Seymour, Missouri, and pick up a Peruvian drum for our church in Guatemala City. Kimberly tried to bring it to Guatemala in June, but the airlines wouldn't let her carry it on. We're going to put in a box and check it as luggage. Hopefully, it will make the trip safely.
He also managed to find time to play the piano and give her brothers a quick lesson.
He's spent the last two days visiting his parents in West Plains while I've filled my time with various annual doctor and dentist appointments. Our son, Jon, flew in on Monday night so I've been able to spend some time with him, too.
