Today’s service didn’t start until 9. I made coffee for us and had an apple bar.  Bill had a protein drink, then drank his coffee.  Then he looked his notes over for the message he’d sharing. I prayed over him for it to go well, God to give him the right words and that God would be glorified.  God sure answered.  We worshipped, Bill gave the announcements, and then he preached a great message..  Many came up to him afterwards and said it was a great message, that the churches need to get back to preaching messages like that, and many said how it touched their heart and motivated them.It did me too!  I was so proud of him!  We stopped at hospitality and Wes, Gayla and Sandy had just started washing Dow all the counters, tables and cleaned coffee pots.  I started vacuuming the carpet.  Kathy and Jeff came to pick up their leathers they were trying to sell and noticed the donut man had dumped greas right outside the door in the rock landscaping and on the sidewalk.  Kathy and I started gettin a big container of very hot water and soap so they could try to clean it up some.  Not easy!  The donut man comes here from Iowa and has never dumped grease like that before. Bill told Liz in the office to make her aware of it.  

We sat outside and visited with Wes and Gayla and Barb and Ron.  Wes finally had an opportunity to dump his motor home so he did that while Gayla waited.  Tiny came and sat and visited with us all too.  

Wes and Gayla left then and 12 of us left here went on a 170 mile ride around the theme.  We stopped in Port Austin and then stopped to eat at The Forest restaurant in Port Sanilac. We had delicious food and lots of fun talking.  We headed back to the campground after that.  At 8 all of us, plus Mike and Gail and Dave and Chrissy all sat by the campfire until the mosquitoes got too bad.  

We came back to the camper and played 3-13. Bill beat me bad.
