All the teams finished up by noon-ish and got lunch at local restaurants - Yeah for the Flying Wienie! As well as some seriously good homemade pizza at the Sykora Bakery in Czech Village.
You know that the work that you've done is appreciated, the owner of the Sykora recognized the crews (we've stopped in quite a few times) and asked what we'd been doing, Ruschman & Babcock explained, when the owner knew where we'd been and how many houses that we worked on, he gave the crew 8 loaves of fresh bread and 4 boxes of pastries & cupcakes ! Wow
Some of the crews got to see a 40 foot dragon boat in one of the homeowner's yards in the Ellis Park area. You don't see that very much.
We've made it back in to Naperville, IL for one more wake-up at the Yellow Box (Community Christian Church).
Just a wake-up, pack-up and hit the road back to Mentor around 7:00 a.m.'ish. We should be getting back to Mentor UMC between 4:30 & 5:00.
Thank you to everyone that helped make this a successful YSP mission trip - 7 crews working on 9 homes for families, making friens with crews from Canistos, SD; Sioux Falls, MO and Lancaster, PA.
Thank You !!!!!
Hope to see you at either Sunday worship service to hear the youth's recap & stories.
Blessed be His Name!
