Simon uses his brute strength to close the Expedition!

We are a little out of chronological order, but wanted you to know about this!

If anyone saw this vehicle on the highway, they wouldn't have a clue what "treasures" were inside! Simon worked through a blustery thunderstorm to see that every item needed for Explorer Camp Plus fit inside. He's hoping he saved room for Mr. Dan, Lois and the snakes! Simon gets the super-packer award for his work today!

This mission trip has been filled with miracles. The fact that Simon and Dan got EVERYTHING inside the Expedition is a MIRACLE!

We ask for safe traveling mercies for Dan and Lois as they embark on their long journey (traveling on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday--it's a LONG way to Maine)!

New Testament Reading: Philippians 2:5-11
Old Testament Reading: Psalm 135

Points to Ponder
1. What attitude did Christ have?
2. What did Jesus give up for you?
3. What have you given up for Him?
4. Jesus humbled Himself by being obedient. What is God telling you to do?
5. Are you willing to submit yourself to Christ and obey Him on this trip?

Pray for:
-- Team member Bailey Freeman
-- Team members traveling today
-- No travel delays today or tomorrow
-- A good close to music camp in Portland
-- A good close to Bonus Days at Covenant
-- A good night of sleep for team members leaving tomorrow
-- All details left at home to be left with confidence under God's care
