We made it!

Hello families and friends!

Just a quick note to let you know that we are safe and sound. The kids did great today! We made great time and had a chance to walk Navy Pier before Chicago-style deep dish. We are spending the night at the Sunshine offices. We were greeted by Sarah from Sunshine, had a tour of the building and now we are off to get rest. I will send more details and some pics tomorrow!

Thank you for your prayers and sharing your kids with us. They are awesome!

Blessings,

kelli, for team chicago 2011

Hi All - Talked to Kelli and everyone is doing great, but the internet at the church is down, so they are having tough time updating the blog. They had a great day today with an incredible worship service this morning. Did some great touring of downtown Chicago the rest of the day - Willis Tower, water taxis on the river, and dinner at Joel's house (he runs the program). Tomorrow all the activities and teams start. Please continue to pray for safety and that God moves in incredible ways this week. BH

Great to hear everyone is doing well. Sounds like the 1st day was a wonderful day of fellowship and bonding.

"Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in it's various forms" 1Peter 4:10

May God's grace and love shine through each of you as you share your talents, so that God may be praised through Jesus Christ!
