Bill giving the message for the evening service.  He sure did an amazing job.  Lot’s of people saying amen during it and lots of compliments afterwards.  He sure listens to the Holy Spirit

Labeled the baked goods I brought and had the ready to pack up in the morning!  Thank you Hailey for helping me so much!

I went to the ladies’ devotions and Bill went to the men’s at 7:20.  Great devotions.  We went to the dining hall and ate breakfast afterwards.  Thankful they give us a golf cart so we can get to places quickly.  We went for preservice prayer in the back of the tabernacle after, then went into the service.  Worship was awesome and Jay’s message was good.

Barry drove the barrel train and the kids loved it.  The pool was open Friday, Saturday and Sunday this year and it’s heated so that was a hit with the kids.  The zip line was open one day too.  It’s usually not open for the rally because they need trained workers.  They found some to cover this year.  The mini golf was open also so there were lots of activities for all. We shopped at Goodies and spent our Goodie’s certificate.  I got a 50th Anniversary CMA shirt and some God’s promise books that I like to pass out.  Bill got some stuff too.  

We had a campfire with Wes, Gayla, Ziggy, Ron, Jay, Jane, Bill, Teri, Heather, Marsha and Russ and Doug.  Sue had to work on something on the computer for Lucy so couldn’t come and Barb was sewing patches on.  It was a fun time.
