We slept in---and, boy, did we need it! Some went out to breakfast; some strolled to the beach. We met up at the beach pavillion for lunch hosted by Resource Conservation and Development folk---not-for-profit agency that coordinates the projects that we do. After that it was off to Rehoboth Beach for a little strolling on the boardwalk. A beautiful day and a great way to draw an intense week to a close! We all gathered in the evening for the tradition Friday night "Circle of Love," at which many of the campers and advisors spoke movingly of their experience. What a great group of kids (and adults)! So caring and giving! They "done Utica Presbytery proud!"

Verizon was working on it. The best laid plans! Once again I sat a driveway and "borrowed" a connection. The day was hot today, full sun. The kids (and adults) were ready for the beach late this afternoon. Thursday is pizza day---pizza on the beach, followed by worship on the beach.<br /><br />Check out the video of our pizza party, walk on the pier and worship on the beach by clicking the underlined link "Thursday" above!<br /><br />We thank God for a healthy, safe week and for mostly good weather!Delaware Workcamp 2008http://www.blogger.com/profile/15820854255336424228noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2218643066541749470.post-37979319804149706642008-07-09T23:37:00.003-04:002008-07-12T19:32:11.069-04:00WednesdayTonight we worshiped using the story of Jesus’ asking Peter, “Do you love me?” and the parable of the sheep and the goats.

The wireless internet has been down at the Lewes Presbyterian Church. The secretary here extended hospitality above and beyond the call of duty, allowing me to use her home wireless. In fact, as I post this, I am parked in her driveway late on Wednesday night! Enjoy the video of these kids hard at work. It’s really amazing how much they do, how much energy they have, and how delightful they are!

Six work crews went out to roof and repair. The weather cooperated with only a brief shower. The reward for the hard work was a trip to the beach and a dip in the ocean. The "Martha Crew" prepared a tasty spaghetti dinner and the evening's program--led by Dennis Dewey, David Jones and Ed Townsend--centered on the theme "Who Are You? Face to Face with the Mystery." The Martha Crew put on a skit of the story of the temptation of Jesus. We're all looking forward to a good night's sleep and a full day of work and ocean tomorrow!

I'm all alone in the conference room, uploading video of the day...and what a day! More than two hours in nearly stand-still traffic on I-81. The State of Pennsylvania is to be avoided at all costs! Unfortunately, it's not possible to get to Delaware without passing through Penn's Woods. At least the kids had a good time, making signs, entertaining poking motorists, singing songs and playing games! Ah youth! We arrived a little after 11:30 p.m. Tomorrow it starts!
