While on this mission, there are coincidences that seem like god moments. For example we need to complete the roof shingles very quickly and have few people who have any experience. By coincidence (?) there is a “roofing crew” consisting of a professional roofer and 9 experienced helpers arriving at the camp who will help us on Monday.
Mary Ann wondered what called her to come on this trip. Turns out Mrs. Pittman had the very same rare cyst on her spine that paralyzed her, as did Mary Ann. Mary Ann was able to spend a good deal of time sharing experiences with Mrs. Pittman and make a real connection. Coincidence?
This morning one of our team missed their flight and so would be coming in two hours later than expected. It was the one obstacle keeping me from attending morning service at St. Mark’s (more in another post about St. Mark’s). Was that the coincidence or was the god moment the fact that the sermon was about humility.

It is certainly clear that God works in ways we can never understand!
All of your friends from Mt. Zion are safely home and back to our normal routines (only cooking perhaps an hour or so a day) and our best wishes and encouragement go out to you in Mississippi. Your hard work, both in fund raising and in construction, is an inspiration to us.
Tony, you need to cut off the blogging before midnight and get some sleep!
