We got up and headed out to the trail. We got there around 9:45am. The first part of the ride was wonderful. It was very beautiful and very nice. At one point we came to a tunnel. There was a man working there on the trail. Scott began talking to him. He then asked if there was a way that we could pray for him. He shared with us that his sister has cancer and is going through chemotherapy again. So we gathered around him and prayed for him. It was a really special time. I could tell that the man was deeply touched.
After the 10 mile mark Scott wanted me, Charlie and Kandis to stay back with the smaller kiddo’s so they could try to go faster b/c Scott had to be at Camp Kinship at 2:00 to lead a session. That turned out to be a bad idea. He thought it would only take them about 30 minutes to finish the trail. It was 2 hours later when they came to pick us up!! You can imagine what it was like for Kandis, Charlie and I to hang out with 5 tired, hungry kids with nothing to do for 2 hours!! It was not fun. L
We came back to the cabins and had about an hour or so to rest before we headed over to Camp Kinship where the college team is leading a youth camp. We met them for dinner, then attended their worship service with them. It was neat seeing the college team lead in worship. They did a great job!
We got back to the cabin around 8:45 then had a brief meeting to discuss tomorrow’s plans. All of the families are really beginning to feel worn out. If your reading this please pray for us to continue on. We’ve ridden 33 miles so far! Some of us are hurting in places we’ve never hurt before. LOL
