Big day today. Woke up to the smell of freshly brewed coffee thanks to Cecilia--our new coffee maker. Mmmmm... The task for the day was to pack the Tennessee truck, which is much more complicated than it sounds. As auditorium manager for TN, Kenzi was in charge of making sure everything was packed by the end of the day. She still has all of her fingers after using the table saw. For those of you know how accident-prone she is.... well you know this was probably not the best idea.
When lunch came around, team somethin somethin seemed to be sucked into some type of time warp because before we knew it, Crystal announced it was 1:00 (our lunch curfew was 1:15). Our food hadn't even come out yet. So.... we were about half an hour late. Considering this was our tour that was being loaded, this was the worst day for this to happen. We're still confused as to how an hour passed without us knowing. Poor Emily didn't really care for her Showering Rama--which was technically peanut butter-covered chicken.
Em also had a big day because she was in charge of getting all of the merchandise for the Station in the truck. Overall, I would say that our team was clutch today. The combination of our 1am run to taco bell and the extremely long day, Kenzi was forced to take a 3 hour nap when she got home from work... while Emily decided to be an overachiever and go running in this awful heat...
Every day we are learning more about what it means to be Kingdom Workers and although our jobs may not be the most glamorous, everyone is important in furthering the Kingdom. Our spiritual gifts were given to us for a reason and it's really neat to find other gifts that we didn't even know we had until we got here. It's so exciting to see God's plan unfold before our eyes as we encounter the Spirit and grow closer to God through fellowship with each other.
Tomorrow we set up and train for the worship session taking place tomorrow night. It's basically so that we can see the final setup and practice for the tours that we are going on. Exciting stuff!
You girls are wonderfully amazing!!!
