Big day yesterday. But a good one. It was nice to have a summer like day. I think that puts people in a good mood. The message yesterday was about the most important thing in life and what we are all about at The Journey...a relationship with Jesus. Keep taking your steps with him. Follow him. Also, we got to introduce Ben, our new Journey Teens Pastor. We are glad he is here. Make sure you introduce yourself to him sometime. I thought yesterday was one of the best days of our bands yet. They sounded so good. And at the end of the day we had our final Kenya planning meeting. The team is ready to go and we packed a bunch of supplies. I was so tired last night and crashed...but then got woke up by some lightning and wind. So in need of much coffee today!
