This was the last day of our host week. Tracy and Blake and children were visiting family overnight, but Michelle, her children, and Brittany were with us. Everyone had to get up at about 6:40 so we could leave the church at 7:00. Our experienced take-down crew (the same one that did set-up, which helps) started restoring the church to normal even before the guests were awake. The IHN truck arrived at 8:00 and was loaded in about 10 minutes. By 8:30 we were finished putting the Sunday School rooms back together. The only indication that anything had happened for a week was a large pile of sheets and towels to be laundered. The space is ready for Vacation Bible School, which starts next week.
This has been a very successful IHN Host Week. We had great food, lots of welcoming hosts, and many behind-the-scenes workers who kept things running smoothly. We get a three-month reprieve now, and get to do it all over again starting September 12. Hope to see you then!
