The women's walk is over, came home yesterday tired, but with a huge sense of accomplishment. There were 28 pilgrims on the walk and from what I sensed during the closing ceremonies, 28 lives were touched and changed. It was a very tiring weekend. Being on the servant/agape committee is a lot of work. Up early, to bed late and non-stop in between. But, I would do it again!
This was the second walk I worked on. I worked in the kitchen for one day at the walk Chris went on. The kitchen crew works as hard as the servant crew. The only difference is, kitchen pretty much stays in the kitchen and dining area. Servants are all over the place. I really wish I had worn my pedometer. I would have loved to have seen how many steps I walked each day!
One thing I want to try and do is work up some agape for the next walk. I can crochet and perhaps work with some plastic canvas. I want to try and make some rainbow bookmarks with crochet thread and some rooster magnets with plastic canvas. Both are fairly easy and quick to workup...except I would need to make at least 50 of any one item. So, maybe if I start now I can get them done by October!
God was there this weekend. He was there for the ladies on the walk, and he was there when the bad storms went through Rensselaer while we were at the walk. He kept everyone safe on the home front. It will definitely be a closing we will all remember.
Being at the walk behind the scenes, really made me want to take the walk all over again! But, working is very rewarding and I can see where others have told me they got more from working on the walk, then being a pilgrim.
God is good all the time!!!!
