Grand Canyon fun

Yeah, fun day at the canyon! Two groups ride bikes and hiked 1 1/2 mile, another group hiked three miles round trip while a fourth group rode the shuttle bus system around to overlooks.

Really hot day but everyone brought plenty of water/Gatorade and didn't over exert themselves. No injuries but someone did learn a new way to slow down on the bikes.

We ate dinner in Flagstaff and now heading to Holbrook to our hotel. We should be there in an hour and a half. It'll be nice to not have to rotate two shower facilities among twenty individuals.

We also celebrated Alie's 12th birthday with a special streamer and gift from her team the "Purple Pony People", sang Happy Birthday to her by the entire bus as well as cookies when we arrive at the hotel. Fun day!

Tomorrow we begin our journey home. Thank you so much for your prayers. It was an amazing week and our last worship service was emotional and impactful to our youth. The message all week was: what is your baggage? Can you leave that at the foot of the cross?
