Well, we made it to DC without any problem. We arrived at Union Station around 9:20 am. We found the place to pick up the shuttle to G.U. Waited for about an hour when I realized I had received a text message from the person we were going to meet. They let me know they needed to reschedule for next week, The ac unit for the building was done and they had someone working on it yesterday. So, Linnea and I ended playing tourist around DC. One interesting thing happened. We were waiting to cross the street that passes in front of the Washington Monument and we were stopped (along with everyone else) from doing so by DC Police and Men in Black. As we stood there wondering what was happening, we ended up seeing President Obama drive by with his block long escorts. I did get some pictures of it, but I had just put away my camcorder.
Anyway, I'll be going back Tuesday morning in hopes of doing what we were supposed to do yesterday. Please pray that the lord might be opening a door for us to help minister to the deaf students in some way.
We also scheduled our first Sign Class for the fall at Walkersville Elementary. That starts Sept. 14 and will go for 10 weeks. It has proven to be a great outreach as well as pay for some of our other projects for the church.
