...We all scream for ice cream -- and face painting! Planning is coming along really well for our ice cream fundraiser on the 8th. Kathy and I took care to make sure the ice cream was ordered -- including the traditional Good Humor type stuff and Italian ices, Flavor ices, and some Latino gourmet frozen desserts in tropical flavors. Pastor Dave put in a call for us to borrow two tents, one for the ice cream and the other for the face painting. Pastor Rich is getting us a long extension cord for the ice cream freezer, and Luis and Alba have been working on signs in Spanish and English, (see Luis' creativity on the left) and Theresa from One Accord volunteered to help us by offering to do face painting at the picnic. We will have a tent set up for Theresa near our ice cream tent, and if there are any volunteers who would like to work the face painting with her, let us know.
It is a blessing to see the enthusiastic support and effort from so many to make this a success, with the ultimate goal of bringing the gospel to the people of Spain. I marvel at God's goodness and His provision -- bringing the right people alongside, and seeing the way the Body of Christ functions as each one joyously does their part in the process. I scream, you scream, not only for ice cream, but in shouts of joy to our Heavenly Father for the amazing way He chooses to work through us to bless others.
