Our travels to Houston began early this morning! We joined up with 250 people from other SEMN ELCA churches to load 6 coach busses to head south. (Thank you Good Earth Village for this opportunity!)

Our travels have been smooth but the temperature has risen the further we go. It’s 85 and humid!

We arrived in Muskogee, OK around 8pm to stay overnight. Our evening is spent putting together 200 youth gathering give-away in a small hotel room 🙂

Give-aways have been a part of the Gathering for a long time. They encourage teens to ‘build bridges’ and meet new friends.

Pizza will arrive soon. And, so will bedtime.

God is good – all the time. All the time – God is good. The adventure has just begun!
