RAVEN ROAD TRIP



God has truly blessed me with the opportunity to drive the RAVEN East Coast van to its home in Hanover, PA., the home of the Croghans. A missionary family donated the van to them on their way out of the country. The Daytona team picked it up in West Palm Beach on our way home from outreach in Miami last weekend and drove it to Daytona. i left at 2:30am this morning and i just arrived here safe and sound, about 7pm. It is a joy to be here. Pastor Sam, Lucy, Meg and Josh are all here and enjoying some great family time. Driving up from Florida it was great to see the fall foliage again. It has been awhile. You tend to forget the rest of the country is having fall when everything is always so green in Florida and the temperatures are so mild. Even in California the seasons are not so well defined. Temperatures got colder the farther north i drove, the leaves are turning and the colors are so alive and beautiful. God's glory is manifest everywhere in the beauty. The route is also one of rich history and someday i would like to do a ministry/history trip. Civil war history fascinates me and there is so much to see on this route. i drove up through Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, DC, and Pennsylvania... So much history.

i am pretty tired right now, but so grateful to God for all His blessings in my life. i posted about half of the pics, you get the idea. They are not in order, sorry. Tomorrow we will be going out to minister.... praise God. i will fill you in tomorrow night....God bless..
