IHN, Wednesday March 26, 2014

Bob and Mary gave the wake up signal and the day was off to a good start.  The gate was opened and door unlocked.  Keith was the morning van driver and made all the appointed stops right on time.

Carol was the afternoon van driver and a bright orange cone saved a place in the covered parking area.  Sorry to FPC members who found the garage full, we also saved a place for Amber so she and Tristan would be "close to home" when they parked.

Kitty was the On Site coordinator and changed the sheets and set the table--oops that was dumb--tonight the guests eat at the Wednesday night supper in Fellowship Hall.  So the table was un-set!

Terry as an evening host came early to check out the new digs and then returned about the time the guests arrived.  Joe and Lois were there as the other evening hosts.  It was nice to have three tonight to shepherd all the little ones, the big brother and the parents up to Fellowship Hall.

The children had some play time after dinner.  Then Amber and Tristan turned in early.  By 7:15 Clarice and Wilbert along with their youngest ones, Ezekial, Isaiah and Jeremiah turned in early as well.

Terry enjoyed reading a chapter book with Sean Maurice and I'm sure he enjoyed it too!  He is a good big brother and is often called on to help out with his little brothers, so it is nice when he can have some special attention and time.  We need to start a collection of children's books for our host weeks; thanks Terry for this recommendation.

Lois enjoyed playing with Samantha on the floor.  And Samantha seemed delighted!  All and all a good evening.

John and Sara were the overnight hosts and found a quiet pit when they arrived from choir practice.  Hope everyone had a peaceful sleep and pleasant dreams.  God bless one and all.
