Day 107

Sunday  02/12/12  Day 107  2 miles 3,392 total
Leave Acorn Hill RV Park and start walking east, looking for a church.  Walk about two miles when I come to a sign that says, Friendship Church of the Nazarene, 1/4 mile. I am a few miles from Robeline, La. and decide to find this church and I am glad I did.  Got there in time to go to a very good Sunday school class lead by 81 year old Jerry.  Pastor Steve preached a very good sermon from 2 Chron.  One statement he made that stuck with me was, "Are we going to play church all of our lives or are we going to serve God?"  Pastor and his wife Jackie and their son Brayden take me to a very nice lunch in Natchitoches.  The plan was for them to drop me off after lunch, but when they found out I was going to hang around for a newspaper interview the next day, they had me come back out to the church and use one of the class rooms for the night.  It was great and they had a missionary couple from Sierra Leone speaking that evening with a pot luck afterwards.  I had been by myself for the last four days so it was wonderful being with these very nice people. They all were very kind to me.  Sure makes me miss my church though.  First pic is of my little tent at Acorn Hill and second is of downtown Natchitoches.

    Dave,
    Seeing your post was reassuring to us that you and your belongings must have had a reasonably dry (and hopefully warm) place to ride out yesterday's rain. We really enjoyed meeting you and sharing part of day 107 of your adventure! Your heart for kids is inspiring. You will be in our prayers as God brings you to mind. Isaiah 40:31
    Steve and Jackie Hunt
