We started the day at Christ Bible Church where Pastor Ford preached a powerful challenge to fathers and men but also for all of us to stand up and serve. We all especially enjoyed the worship music and Pastor Ford's passionate and animated style of preaching!
Then it was on to sight seeing day. We visited Millennium Park, had lunch on Navy Pier, took a water taxi through downtown and visiting the Skydeck at the Willis Tower.
Then we headed to the church where we will have our teaching and worship each night. Joel gave an orientation on Sunshine and safety and began what is sure to be an exciting and enlightening dialogue on God's heart for the poor and his heart for us.
We begin our service week tomorrow. The kids were pumped to get settled in tonight and to get moving and serving tomorrow. I will post work team lists so you can know who is where and also pray for each group and each name.
It was a great fun day and now we are ready to roll up our sleeves and get busy!
Thank you thank you for your prayers and love and support. It is the only way this happens.
Blessings...More tomorrow!
