Last Sunday was our last week worshiping with our home church, Cornerstone, in Clinton. For us, it was a very emotional day. Amy and I gave a little talk about where we were going and what we were going to be doing for the next year. Pastor Chris and Pastor Dave (and the entire congregation) annointed us with oil and covered us in love and prayer which was the best part of all. At the end of the service, the entire congregation went out to the RV (which we drove to church at Pastor Chris' suggestion... hilarious!) and in the rain, surrounded the RV and prayed over it and us one more time. Pastor Chris then christened the RV with a bottle of champagne (two flat tires on the way out... jk) and we all went back into the church for one more song. At the end of the service, Pastor Chris made a passing comment that as a parting gift, a few of our brothers and sisters had decorated the RV and that they should all take a look at it on their way out. We should have known that the decorations would be done "Cornerstone Style" because when we went outside, the entire RV had been completely covered in shaving cream and toilet paper!! It was amazingly well done too!! (Good job DJ, Shannon and Greg! - Love you guys) We will miss our Cornerstone family tremendously. Thank you all for the outpouring of love and support that you have given to us during our time with you all.
The rest of the past week was spent saying goodbye to friends and family and moving into the RV! Amy took her first shower on Friday night and we are pleased to report that the shower pressure was "decent"! It even got the shampoo out of her hair!!! Also, thanks to Herb and Jeff for taking the time last Saturday to help install the tow brackets for the car. You guys were life savers!
So we are leaving tomorrow (finally) after a number of last minute things that popped up with RV, but everything is as set as it can be and we are New Orleans bound!! Please keep us in your prayers for safety and "boring travel". Love you all. Dave and Amy
