Back in the Woods

After the long summer break from making deliveries we finally got back in the woods. It was really nice to see everyone again. They were happy to see us as well. We definately have established several good relationships.



We also had several firsts happen on this delivery.



The first first was that we went without Anne for the very first time. I certianly was nervous. Everyone knows and loves Anne. When the homeless friends see her, they light up and welcome her very warmly. Today, we I called out people's names, I told them I was a friend of Anne. That did the trick. Many did also remember us, so it was not all that scary.



The second first were the amount of male youth that went with us. We had 4!!! Boy, it is nice to have boys with us. Not that the girls can't handle this, but having the boys was a really nice addition.

The third first was the amount of youth who delivered. There was a bit of a communication problem on Wednesday and we had a total of 6 youth go out. We were fortunate that Anne did not come, we did not have enough seats for her.

We also met a new person for us at the big camp. She ended up being the one that God used to teach us. I always tell the youth to be on the look out for when God speaks to us when we are on these deliveries. While we were talking to this new person, I felt that I needed to tell her about Jesus. I normally don't start out with talking about Jesus, but I made an exception. As soon as we mentioned Him, she changed and told us all abut how she knew He was taking care of her. It ended up to be a nice converstation.

As I said, it was nice to be back in the wood.
