DULAC MISSION 2011 - MONDAY

STAY Dulac Blog 2011

Our trip started out with lots of fun in the usual fashion. The 3 vans and their entourage were filled with 18 youth and 7 adults, with 2 more youth and 2 adults on the way. The ride was long, entertaining, and full of hand checks, except for in the co-ed car!





Our first stop....FUMC Houma’s Youth Room was a great place for darts, pool, and ping-pong. We enjoyed pizza and fellowship with their youth, and later learned a new game, “Underground Church”. Spies deceived, missionaries gathered, angels saved, guards chased, and kids screamed. All in all, the game was a lot of fun. When we finally arrived at the Dulac Community Center, we were greeted by a stifling lack of air conditioning in the boys’ side. Everyone survived the night, and started the first day of “work” with no food in the building! Fortunately the delivery truck came quickly, and we ate breakfast a little late! Work was still to be fully defined and determined, so an intense game of Phase 10 was started in the meantime! All in all, we perhaps had a little bit too much free time the first day, but tomorrow will be much more productive! We did get a great start on the blankets that VBS will finish to send to Guatemala, and also pressure-washed the deck! Two other teams drew up plans for building projects for the next few days.
