We are on our way back…..At this minute we are somewhere in central Pennsylvania. This will all be posted as soon as we are hooked up to the internet. We started our day by finishing packing the bus for the return trip home and cleaning the space that we called home for a week. We left Mt. Airy, MD at about 7:00 AM to drive the hour ride to Gettysburg, PA. On the way we watched the movie “Gettysburg”, some slept.
We arrived there about 8:00 AM to visit the battlefield, the new visitor center, Cyclorama, and museum. We knew our time would be limited. The new displays are very well done. We easily could have spent more time. We drove through the Lutheran Seminary at Gettysburg and down Seminary Ridge and stopped at Little Round Top. We enjoyed a huge buffet at Pickett’s Revenge.
We were back on the road by 1:00 headed back to Hebron, KY. On the way back we watched the videos and pictures from the week. We are beginning the process of ending our time together. At our Devo time we talked about Matthew 5:13-16…Being Salt and Light in the world. When asked about the qualities of salt the group listed enhancing and preserving, cleanses, stings and irritates. When we talked about light, Alisha shared with the group how God’s light shines through us to others. We all agreed that what we saw and learned this week needs to be shared and acted upon.
