Sunday at Bible Fellowship Church.

This morning we were up and at it early so we could eat breakfast in the BFC "Daniel's Den" and then clear out in enough time for the BFC women's Sunday Bible study to take place there at 9:00 a.m. Our guys met with the men and boys of the BFC congregation at 9:00 a.m. for a Bible study focused on marriage. We did a quick refresher course on the Five Love Languages, and even did a down-and-dirty Myers-Briggs personality test. (A lot of ISTJ's in our group.)

Typically, the BFC main service gets underway after the Bible study, with the full congregation coming together at 10:30. This morning, Pastor Don Trest spoke from I Peter 3:8-17 about "Peacemakers and Do-Gooders," especially in context of the effort by BFC's elders and deacons to establish an updated 6-12 month plan, focused on "doing church right." It was a good service, and well done by Pastor Don. We'll be praying along with the BFC elders and deacons for the plan to come together.

After church let out, we got back together for a lunch of cold cuts, chips, and chocolate cake, and groups set out for different errands and/or sightseeing. Our work schedule will get laid out in our 3:00 meeting with our BFC work coordinator, John Whitney.

We're excited about getting going tomorrow morning. Probably, the work day will be 7 or 8:00 a.m. to noon, with an extended lunch break in the middle of the day to avoid the high heat, and then back out for more work on afternoon shifts from about 2:00 to 5:30 p.m.

Thanks for the continued prayers, and for reading.
