Every mission trip I have been on has had great moments and this one certainly has had more than its share. As we finish our work for the week it always comes with mixed emotions. Excitement that we will be heading home to see our family and friends (I am really missing Gina and my little guys). Sadness that we will be saying goodbye to these new friends we have met here in Oklahoma. People like Georgia whose house we had the opportunity to see become just about completed. Her joy and gratitude is infectious. Or Stan, our construction supervisor that led us this week with a quiet grace and calm that was amazing.<br />

We have done good work this week. We painted. We raked (and raked and raked). We laid sod to give Miss Georgia a new front lawn. We mulched and spread seed and a host of other little tasks to make her house a home.<br />

But, I believe the most important thing wasn't done by us. It was done by God. God brought us all here and touched each of us in a profound way. These trips feed my soul. It reminds me of what we, as the Body of Christ, are called to be and do. To reach out. To be "doers" of our faith. This week the church left the building and lives were changed. It is my prayer that what we bring back is more than what we had when we left. I pray that this experience will remind us that we are called to be seed throwers and flame starters for Jesus.<br />

Let's Stomp Today</h2>
<div>
Thursday started with a slightly new twist on the day. The weather started to return to Oklahoma normal it was windy and starting to turn colder. Today's high was 55. The wind in Oklahoma is strong and constant which made today an Orange sweatshirt day! The first two stops of the day were for us to see the types of storm shelters that Samaritan's Purse installs. In the houses they build from the ground up they get an internal safe room where the homeowners can go if another tornado warning sounds. The other is an in-ground shelter for those houses that just need repairs and do not have an internal room.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

When we got to the house it was mainly an outside work day. We broke into work groups and started. Some planted the plants bought for the new home, And they also went with Miss Georgia to her destroyed house to dig up some of her favorite plant to be planted at her new home. </div>

Others started putting in the yard. Some spread peat moss and grass seed while others laid sod in the front of the house. This is were we had some fun because after you lay the sod you need to make sure it is firmly in contact with the ground. So we gathered together and you guessed it... a stomp party ensued. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The final group installed a new stepping stone side walk to the front porch. This path leads to a wonderful warm and inviting front entrance to a new start for Miss Georgia. We love to see this new life coming out of the devastation from the storm. --Garth Johnston</div>

As Chef Rick from Samaritans Purse says, "God painted us another great day". Weather was in the mid 70's and just a wonderful day to be the hands and feet of Christ.<br />
<br />
We are making good strides as we try to finish Georgia's home by the end of the week. The painting has finished! The landscaping has begun. Top soil was dumped and spread. Bushes were planted and assorted plants were arranged.. We are thankful for this opportunity and blessed to see the joy in Georgia's face as she sees her house starting to look like a home. <br />
<br />
Keep those prayers coming...we all are feeling them!!!<br />

As happy as we are to be in <st1:state w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Oklahoma</st1:place></st1:state>, the first day
of a mission trip holds its own particular challenges. Everyone gets up early-
too early. New routines for mealtimes and clean up must be worked out. The
group is anxious about work assignments- do we wear the work boots, googles or
hats? How do we find our work site? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Wonderful
blessings are also discovered…. We met our fellow workers from all over the <st1:country-region w:st="on">US</st1:country-region> who will be partnering with us this week….we
saw <st1:state w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Oklahoma</st1:place></st1:state>
in the daylight. Worship with praise songs and meaningful devotions /prayers
began our day.</div>

<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>The name comes from Jesus’
story in the Bible, the story of the Good Samaritan found in Luke 10. One grace
filled part of the story defines our purpose for being here. The Samaritan finds
the traveler hurt by the side of the road. “He went to him, bandaged his
wounds, pouring oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought
him to an inn and took care of him. The next day he took out two silver coins
and gave them to the innkeeper, ‘Look after him, he said, when I return I will
reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.” Our purpose in being here is
to care for the needs of others in distress so they will come to realize the
love of God in their life. Sometimes we need to go immediately, other times we
need to continue to provide care<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>to help
people get their lives back in order long after a natural disaster. </div>

There was some fear that with the snow in Pittsburgh today that the team might have some difficulty making the necessary connections. But after a slight delay in Pittsburgh, the team arrived safe and mostly sound :) in Oklahoma at 5:30 pm. It was good to be together and there is a lot of excitement about what this week will bring. <br />
<br />
We arrived at Church of the Harvest (Norman campus), got some Samaritan Purse gear to wear on site and had an orientation of the building. Arrangements look wonderful. Bunk beds, large fellowship area and plenty of space to rest and have fun together. Shower trailer is outside, but before you feel bad that we have to walk outside to get there, know that it was 77 degrees here today!!! Sorry, to all of you back in Pittsburgh shoveling from a half foot of snow.<br />
<br />
We took a friend's suggestion and went to eat at the Mexican restaurant, Chuy's. Great place...looked very authentic. But the best part of dinner was hanging with these authentic brothers and sisters in Christ. I look forward to to being "seed throwers" and "fire starters" for Jesus this week.<br />
<br />
Time for a good night sleep. Tomorrow we wake at 6:30 am...orientation, devotion and off to work. Pray for this team this week. Pray for those still trying to recover from this disaster. Pray for those we will be working with and for the ministry happening here. <br />
<br />
Blessings,<br />

<br />Rev. Jeffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00778709909274544728noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753467925010716787.post-11770038115125239772015-01-16T20:01:00.003-08:002015-01-16T20:01:25.602-08:00Friday FinaleToday was our final full day. The week flew by!!! It was kind of a hectic one. We left around 8:30 to go to the job site. On the way there, the back of the bus door was not fully shut and magically opened itself as we were on the back roads. Luckily, Debbie shut it and managed to stay in the bus. We arrived at the house after and began working shortly after. The group was finishing up on the final touches of the house. Bob worked on the tile and accessorized the front porch posts with decorative wood encasing. Doug and Walt/Henry continued to work on the trim in the house. It is nearly complete and looks beautiful. Trent was cocking the seams of the trim. Debbie, Doreen, Laura, and I installed the door handles and struggled our way through putting the rods in the closet up. During this process, another one of those funny moments occurred. We managed to break the screw for the rod in the closer. Luckily Walt/Henry was our super man and saved the day. Tons of giggles were shared though especially when the next funny moment happened. Out of all the screws in the boards we managed to find one covered over conveniently where we need to put the bracket screw. Debbie gave Georgia this beautiful prayer shawl and the group gave her a beautiful handmade wooden cross. She was in tears because she was so happy. It was one of those special God moments. We even got to eat lunch outside and enjoyed the sunny 64 degree day. I never want to leave if the weather stays this way. For our final adventure, we went to the Braum's Ice Cream Store. For three ice creams, it was only 7 dollars and it was delicious! (Hint week 2 go there!) Tomorrow we continue working for part of the morning and then we are back on our way to Pittsburgh. I hope to see you all soon!<br />

The home is really coming together very nicely. Walt and I worked on placing the base-boards and trim throughout the house. Trent followed the trim work with spackling and painting. Bob installed and grouted tile, cabinet hardware, and added some finish to porch posts. Andrea installed all of the door hardware. Doreen and Debbie mastered the clothes rods in the closets. Laura, aka Beans, spent some time making a special gift for the homeowner, a handmade/signed Cross. <br />

Our homeowner joined us for dinner this evening. Miss Georgia rode back with us after work. It was very nice to have he join us. Beans presented the Cross to miss Georgia after dinner. What a sweet woman. We are so blessed to have worked on her home this week. <br />

We have all had a difficult time determining which day it is since we started on Tuesday. We are made much progress at Georgia's house. We were fortunate as we started work near the completed end of the house. I am sure by the time we leave Saturday it will look very much like a home for Georgia. I have been trying to post more photos but currently having some technical difficulty.<br />

We continued to work on the house by painting doors, walls, and trim. Others worked on installing the kitchen counter top, putting up trim, and installing the microwave. We also were able to enjoy some more lovely cement glue fumes. The happiness is still continuing on tonight sitting around. Fortunately, the house is really coming together. Miss Georgia was so happy with our finishing touches she was singing. Around 4 we came back to the church for dinner at 5:30. Afterwards is when the real fun began. Presbyterian Project made an outing to the big city! We looked like such tourist, but it was a blast. We walked the canal, to the gardens, and even went back to the candy store! It was nice to be able to enjoy each other's company and make some memories. Thank you for all the prayers and support!<br />

<br />
We can all use a little grace more than occasionally. For us today, grace had a different meaning. Miss Georgia is the woman we are working for in Oklahoma. Her home was made unlivable by the tornado. I had the opportunity to spend some time with her today. She shared with me how thankful she is to have the numerous volunteers that have come to help. She was speechless but gave me a hug and thanked us. Grace.<br />
<br />
As you may have gathered, we worked at Miss Georgia's house today. The good news, for those of you that know me, I got my Beagle fix from Dolly the tail-less Beagle near Miss Georgia's house. <br />

The power was unfortunately out in the cooking trailer so instead we enjoyed McDonald sandwiches and local donuts. Finally around 930 we headed to our job. The group got on the wonder bus to drive a half of an hour to the job site in Cleveland County. The homeowner's name is Miss Georgia, who is in her 70s. She was so happy to see her house and the smile never left her face. It was quite a cold day, but we survived.We began work on the inside of a nearly completed house. Trent, Debbie, Laura, Doreen, and I were on paint duty. We painted the nice trim around the new windows and even got to start on the doors. Tomorrow we hope to finish them. Walt/Henry. Doug, and Bob did some carpentry work. They began installing the counter tops in the kitchen. Needless to say after smelling cement glue for a couple hours in the enclosed house, we were all a happy bunch. We ate a nice packed lunch made by hand with our supervisor Stan. Laura and I worked hard together. It was a miracle. My mom was highly impressed. Highlight of the day though was Doug showing us his special talent... balancing stuff on his nose. No one believed him, but he did it and amused us all. At 4:15 pm, we drove back to the church where we could finally take a shower. Tonight for dinner the trailer was up and running again so we had meatloaf, mash potatoes, mixed veggies, salad, rolls, and peach cobbler. It was incredibly delicious. Nothing beats a home cooked meal. Now we are sitting around chit chatting and watching Laura get her butt beat in pool by Walt/Henry. It is a relaxed kind of night. Now it's my turn to beat Laura too. Report back tomorrow.<br />

The trip started with Debbie forgetting a pillow. Instead of going home and delaying the start of the adventure, Dianna let her have Henry's to use for the trip. The van left GPC at 8:30 arriving in plenty of time to catch the 11:23 flight. The first leg of the trip went well until it was time to land. The pilot announced that we were approaching for the landing and to get prepared. As we finally did get down we all thought that was the longest landing any of us had ever had. We found a nice cafe in Atlanta that we enjoyed a nice claiming lunch. Little did we know how the second leg of the trip would turn out. The flight was delayed 15 minutes. We were speaking to other passengers and found that they we heading to DC. Then a little while later the gate for the flight to OK was changed. Finally 45 minutes later we were off. The landing in OK was much faster and then the fun of meeting up with the van began. It ended up we were on one side of the pick up and the van was on the other. Thank goodness for Cell Phones. We then were able to learn the adventure of riding in the van. <br />

Feels like we just left, but I know that we have been in the bus together for more than 20 hours. Weather forecast included snow, sleet, and freezing rain along our route. Fortunately we only experienced some rain in St. Louis last night. Clearing today, much better travels except for some cross-winds. We are thankful that we arrived safely. It has been a great trip thus far. <br />
<br />
I have gone on numerous mission trips with the youth from Hiland, my current home Church, and they always shared how they loved the van rides to our mission trip location. I know it was because they could deepen existing friendships and develop new ones. I agree and over the years I have learned it is integral to developing a deeper relationship with people. Another way to develop relationships is working, living, and sharing with other Christians. Our entire team had dinner together tonight after we picked some folks up at the airport. It has been great getting to know my bus mates and and the others on our team. i am very much looking forward to what God has in store for us this week.

From there we continued down Missouri to get to Oklahoma. Around 12:30 pm, the group arrived at Sonic in Marshall, Missouri for some lunch. Soon we realized that the van was too tall and so we had to stand outside in front of the screens to order. It was a good laugh for all those who passed by. Also, we filled the bus up with gas that was only $1.79 this time. You may think that is a bargain until you get to Norman and see a sign for only $1.59. It is a truly incredible thing. What is even better than cheap gas though is great weather. We had nothing, but clear blue skies while driving down. Oklahoma may be flat, but the landscape is breathtaking. You can look on both sides of the road and see cattle everywhere. We arrived a little earlier than the people who flew so we just had to do some sight seeing. The group decided to go to downtown Oklahoma City to see the bomb memorial and this quaint little candy shop we saw on a brochure in Brick Town. It was an adventure to say the least. Bob the bus driver got us around safely even with 2 different GPS systems going at once. The girls decided to buy the boys some candy treats, which they enjoyed immensely. Afterwards, we finally picked up the rest of our group around 6 and checked in at the church around 6:30. Here, Samaritan's Purse was quite generous and gave us a whole new wardrobe for the week. I do not think anyone can get lost on this trip when wearing the neon orange shirts on the job sites fortunately. Little did the group realize though the true challenge for the week..... finding a place to have dinner. We wandered around for about a good half an hour trying to find the right place and only caused a traffic jam once in turning around the great beast of a bus. Our final choice was the Saltgrass Steak House. It comes highly recommended. Now, we get to take time to just hang out and go to bed soon. Tomorrow the real fun begins and the hard work. I hope everyone had a great day even if it was a Monday!<br />

We left the church around 8 am after Rev. Jeff sent us off with a prayer. We knew it was going to be a long 10 hours ahead of us, but the church was finally leaving the building. Bob, Doug, Doreen, Laura, and I are the team riding down. We enjoyed a lovely lunch at Steak N' Shake in Dayton and filled up the van with gas that only costed $1.94. Weather got a little sketchy around Indianapolis, but Doug the bus driver pushed on. The trip was pretty smooth besides the weather at the end. Luckily, the drive is a great team bonding experience. The true question is though, how do you exactly kill 10 hours in a 15 passenger van? The answer..... lots of talking. By the end of the trip we will all be able to tell each others life journeys. The bus is full of nonstop giggles brought on by our jokers Bob and Doug. Finally, we arrived at roughly 6:30. Fortunately, we all gained an hour since we are now in the central time zone. St. Louis was quite foggy, but the arch was still cool to see. The group enjoyed a nice dinner at the local place called Fenton's Bar and Grill. And of course, no meal is complete without dessert so we had no choice, but to also make a stop at the Krispy Kreme. There we became the local tourists and watched the doughnuts be made from beginning to end. It was hilarious. Praying for good weather this week and especially tomorrow for our drive. I plan on posting at least once a day so stay tuned for many more adventures from this week. Hope everyone has a great week at home.<br />
