Day 6 Update

What a day it was!

We all packed in the vans and headed to Red River Gorge for canoeing and rock jumping.  Brian took us to his Operation Wilderness rock jump area.  You climb to the top of a really big rock and jump about 75 to 80 feet down to the water.  It was a blast with everyone completing at least 1 jump.  Some did as many as 8!  (Actually it was only 18-22 feet)

After the big jump we canoed for about two hours.  (We did paddle about 150 yards upstream to get to the rock)  Lots of splashing and canoe flipping along the way.  The best part was to save yourself from drowning you needed only to stand up.  

With the canoe trip behind us we made our was to Miguel's Pizza down by Natural Bridge.  Don and Donna Tedrick joined us for some yummy pizza and Ale 8 1 soda.

We headed back to the Happy Church around 7:00 and finished some service projects from 7:00pm to 9:30pm.  We don't have many pictures yet to post.  We did not take any cameras on the canoe trip so you will just have to wait for the stories.

Brian, Jess, Grace and Nick Angstadt headed to the airport after the Pizza dinner to welcome the Simmons' home from China with their new addition to the family.  Brian and Nick will return to the Happy Church either late tonight or early tomorrow to help with the final clean-up before the grand opening of the Happy Shack!

For all you coming down, we will see you tomorrow.

Thanks for all your prayers, blog comments and support!

Yours in Christ,

Todd - Deputy Youth Pastor!
