From Richmond…
It was a trip NOT to be remembered. I got on the bus in Framingham for Logan Airport (Boston) at 3pm and arrived at my friend’s house at 3am! I could have DRIVEN to Richmond faster than my flight time. What happened? I don’t know, other than we were delayed an hour and a half in New York, then once we boarded we waited on the plane for more than an hour, finally taking off around 1am. And then in Richmond of all places, at 2am in the morning, they didn’t have a gate free for us so we waited another thirty minutes or so to deplane. Like I said, a trip NOT to be remembered.
But once here on the ground in Richmond, things have been great. I haven’t been to Cool Spring since BEFORE they started coming to the DR so I got to meet a lot of family of my DR friends as well as see the youth and adults who come and work. It was exciting to share a follow-up report on their ministries of last summer.
Friday I head to Fincastle, where I used to live to visit with Mill Creek Baptist Church, my church family for 9 years. (I served on staff with them and they have been to see me in the DR too.) Then next Tuesday I head down to South Florida and The Keys to spend time with my parents and the folks from Big Pine Key Baptist Church.
