Our Alaskan adventure is beginning to wind down. We will fly back to Ohio late Friday night and dive right into a jam packed fall full of ministry. We had to wake up and hit the road by 5am this morning. It was a really dark 2 and half hour drive to Cook Inlet Academy in Soldotna. We arrived a little early and joined the staff and administration for devotions and prayer. Mary (the principal) gave us a tour of the school and gave us some insight to the student body. Don and I had a great time sharing with the students and encouraging them to passionately live out their faith in Jesus. Afterwards we grabbed some coffee with Pastor Larry, his wife, and his daughter-in-law. It was a good time of brainstorming and recapping the trip with each other. We had a long drive back to Anchorage so Don and I made a lot of phone calls to catch up with people, work on ministry for next week, and raise support.
We got back to the Richardsons in time for dinner. They cooked up some Salmon and Moose Burgers. To our surprise Don actually tasted part of a moose burger and he survived! He actually said it wasn't that bad. After dinner a few of Seth and Sarah's friends came over and we spent hours having Theological discussions. There were some pretty intense times with Dennis and Don going back and forth but it was great conversation. Tomorrow we will go with Dennis to breakfast with a few local pastors and then tomorrow night we will have a Jesus night at their house. I guess they made an announcement at the high school so we might have a lot of kids over at Dennis and Celesta's house for pizza and Jesus time.
