8-1-09 It's hard to believe the mission trip has come and gone. It took more than a year of planning and fundraising. We'd like to thank Cathy Brown for her hours of research and organization. Cathy's hard work made the trip run smoothly. We are blessed to have her energy and dedication at Grace Episcopal Church. The Holy Spirit is definitely at work in Cathy. Another BIG thank you goes to the many supporters of this mission trip! The Alaska Mission trip would not have been possible without your donations or kind words or hours of volunteering at fundraisers. Thank you to those who drove us to the airport and for those who picked us up yesterday. We can't wait to share the many ways we made a difference in Alaska. Some are obvious and I will attach many pictures today of the physical projects we completed. The more lasting effects are in the hearts of the parishioners of St. David's and the hearts of the Grace Episcopal Mission Team. We've invited the folks at St. David's in Wasilla to come to Virginia to make this a true exchange. I know we will see them again.
