once a week I dress like a pirate for dinner

It's totally normal to dress like a pirate for dinner.  It's also totally normal to send your Work Crew boys to bed @ 10:30pm only to have them woken up @ midnight, blindfolded and "kidnapped" to go through the Malibu Ropes Course in the dark. 

It's day 4 of our last week here.  I can't believe it's gone so fast and that I have to take these 42 incredible kids to the airport on Saturday.  It's been fun, it's been hard, it's been an honor to serve with these kids and our Work Crew team.

I am healthy.  Thanks for those of you who prayed for my health!  We've had a few fevers and kids put on bed rest for 24 hours, but overall we are whole and in one piece.

Below are some pictures of our WC boss team and kids.  Please be praying for our transition home and for these kids as they return home.  Some of them return to hostile and unhealthy situations, others will go off to college.  Pray that when given the choice of the world or Jesus, that they would choose Jesus.  

Tomorrow we will be on the ropes course from 6am until 5pm.  Then we get the day off as Work Crew and Summer Staff.  Pray for us to have fun, rest and get some closure as we enjoy a time off together.
