Yes, that is what we woke up to this morning, a bomb threat....The first one the Morning Star campus has ever had. We had to evacuate the campus and the people who evacuated us were not to happy because we had no clue what to do and so we sort of just walked around trying to figure it out. Meanwhile someone came and started fussing that we were not in a secure place.... Well after about an hour we got to return to our facilities and we ate breakfast and got started working! We had to trailers to clean out. These trailers are where the campers will sleep and they had not been used in awhile so they had to have a full scrub down. They were so so dirty! It took us hours! Now they look great, well compared at least.... Then we hung out Sarah and I went to find somewhere she could get her haircut. It looks very cute now :) Then the bottom fell out and we got completely soaking wet!! We got in the shower because we were sooo cold! Then I cooked dinner for everyone :) Fettucini Alfredo! Okay so it was really spaghetti noodles with alfredo sauce so I'm not sure if it counts, but I was working with what I had!! Then it was off to get internet of course haha! Tomorrow we are supposed to have internet at Morning Star. We will see how that goes....
Okay so I will tell you what the deal is with Morning Star because I'm not sure if I have explained it yet or not. Morning Star is where we and the youth groups will be staying. We don't necessarily do any work there we just rent out rooms. They might help out a bit around the campus some, but not much. They will work more in the community. Mornig Star is a safe place to live for kids, anywhere from small kids to high school age kids, that have an IQ below 70 (most around 50) that have at one point in their lives been sexually, mentally, or physically abused. The courts have found their parents unfit to keep the kids so this is a place they can go to live and to have school.
Stacy, my camp director for NY and DC, comes in tomorrow around lunchtime so that will be grand! The sooner she gets here the sooner we get to head to NY!!!
PS. I hope this is a little better Mom and Jana!!
I love you all!! Pray for me and my staff!!
