Preachin'

Hi

Sunday morning we were up early to prepare for church. Poppa was nervous as always and kept checking his notes. Jilpi (the puppet) was also coming too.

It was going to be a big service as there was a choir from Tennessee, some people being accepted into membership, another pastor from Australia who was doing the children's talk and Poppa preaching.

It was a great service except Poppa took me up to the pulpit to make me preach. I was speechless when I saw all these people. Poppa eventually decide maybe he should do the preaching.

We had an afternoon rest and then joined the choir for dinner. I met some cool guys from Tennessee who were in high school, however they also like basketball and I became the basketball.

After dinner we went for a drive to see some of the local sites. There is this Indian legend about a bird which we saw on a cliff by the Mississippi River.

We parked near the river and Nana and I went for a walk. We found a little creek and saw some sticks moving. We went to explore and discovered a shy beaver. We got talking and he too is homeless as the floods washed away his dam. His name is Chuck. We have invited him to join us on our adventure.

Goodnight all
