So, we're now in Missouri. After taking a train several hours through several states, Drew, Jeff and I made it successfully to Missouri. Greg, Alicia and Ray drove ( sadly it took them 7 hours driving). Us three guys made it to our host family( a.k.a Eric Wilson)'s apartment. First we ate (White Castle, Drew's first experience...he thinks they're "legit") and then, upon the discovery of a pool, we swam. It was much needed after such a long day of travel. We all realized we were operating on less than 3 hours of sleep each, so around 10pm, we put a movie on and crashed. Then we woke up and helped Twan and Mark move out of their apartments. And now Greg is at the Goodwins and everyone else is swimming and I'm in the apartment. Tomorrow begins the training, though none of us ( with the exception of Greg and the people training us) know what to expect...and that's just how we like it. Tuesday morning at 6a.m we embark to Wyoming, the land flowing with elk and mountains. Eric had a conversation with his disciple last night that was pretty intense and I think Jeff and Drew got a hint of what's to come. This isn't all daisies and roses. There is work to be done. Pray that our hearts be open to what God has for us. Pray for new eyes and new ears and new perspectives for us to see and hear and feel what needs to be done in each of our own lives in preparation for living in Wyoming this summer. Pray our focus be on this summer.
