Well pretty soon anyway. This is a quick update on Saturday before we begin the trek back to Roatan tomorrow. Yesterday was a big, big day. After 10 years of part time classes, full time work, and more than full time management of his cystic fibrosis, we finally got to see Jesse walk across the big platform with over a thousand other graduates to have his picture taken with the president of the University of South Florida. Woo hoo!! See the pictures and video below.
Later this morning, we’ll be going up to Land ‘O’ Lakes to spend some time with our church family from Candlewood at sort of an open market where they set up a booth once a month to meet other people in the community. Then we’ll be heading to the beach for a baptism service, joining up with our other home church, Oakwood.
Tomorrow, after church, we’ll be heading over to Orlando. There’s a restaurant Jesse wants to go to. Then he and Kristin will be dropping us off at Eddie and Janie Upchurch’s home there in Orlando where we’ll take a brief nap before Eddie and Janie take us to the airport for a 7:00 am flight back to Roatán.
We’ve had an incredible time, but now Roatán is calling us home and we are ready.
