The Chronicles of Garnabus

I met a fantastic group of kids today!!

They're staying at St. ECWIW's tonight on their way from Providence Rhode Island to San Francisco. Along the way they've stopped in about ten different towns to help build low income housing. They've also raised over $400,000.00 in the past three years, with this particular group having raised over $120,000.00 just for this trip. The money is used to fund low income housing projects as well as to help raise awareness of the need for such programs.

The group is called Bike and Build -- you can check them out at http://www.bikeandbuild.org

Thirty of them are on the trip and they're really amazing people.

Fuego and I got to spend some time with them at a St. ECWIW family's house tonight for a pool party and BBQ, so we got to chat with them about their experience (very cool!).

Doubtless this will show up in a sermon in the near future.

In other news, Teo and Fred have decided that the unused top edges of our pillows are their personal parade route on their way to the bedroom window at 5:23am when the birds start chirping. I would have thought that it would have been a very grumpy way to wake up, but sadly it was just too cute to be grumpy about ;o)

They're having the best time ever at their extended kitty sleep-over!

I meant to post my sermon from the 18th today from work, but was swamped... so my senior sermon from CDSP is posted below instead!
