Wednesday Night Hope Village

Showers were in order for everyone after the day working and now to Hope Village for dinner.  As we pull into the parking lot, Steve, Ray and Mark see the people they were working with at the flooded home, Rhonda & John Johnson from Idaho.


Team w/sign
Flood Home Team
The last night at Hope Village, many of the teams put up a sign that notes they were here working.  We are no different.  Group shot and one of Jane and Steve putting up the sign.  Then one of Linley (grad of Florida State) who is the public relations person for Hope Village.

Smiling Jenny who prepares meals
The Methodist relief workers have arrived this evening so we eat and share a meal in the blue and white tent.  Jenny is a great cook who prepares all the meals.  Thank you, Jenny!

Playing their Violins
The Danielson Family
After dinner we enjoy a violin concert by the Danielson family from Ft. Wayne, Indiana.  They are visiting their family in Minot and volunteered to play for the those at Hope Village.  It was a lovely way to end our time at Hope Village and so representative of the kindness of the people we've met on this trip.
  
Back at the hotel, a group gathers outside to enjoy the fresh air and recap of the day's experiences.  Another day of meeting people, working and learning how God works in so many ways in people's lives, including ours.
