Saying Goodbye to Newport Tennessee

Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord has done for you and how much he has mercy on you.  Mark 5:19 It's been an amazing week for the St. John's youth!  Today, they cleaned up the church from the week and began saying their goodbyes.  Yesterday, Greg took a pic. of one of the houses they worked hard on painting: Also, this is the Chruch in Newport that they spent most of the week at. The girls slept up in the balcony:   Nikki helping clean.... Greg said this was a pic. of them cleaning up, but it looks like these 2 are about  to play football??    ;) Everyone made friends.  Marshall enjoyed spending time with one of the Youth Works leaders, Rich.  He didn't want to see him go. He will miss him! The kids are getting packed up and ready to leave. Before they go, they have a prayer circle with the Youth Works staff. What a great organization!! Prayer Circle Kids, Jayne, Greg and the Youth Works Staff We all are praying for a safe trip home for them.  We are looking forward to hearing their stories and seeing more photos of their time in Newport TN.  Soon, they will be loading the van and trailer and on their way to Indiana. Here, Greg hopes to do some sight seeing.  They will stay at a hotel there tonight and arrive back in Mound around 6pm.   Looking forward to welcoming you all home!!
