Day 1

Good morning from the Volunteer state! We got off to a great start from Kyle, sent off at 5:45 with breakfast tacos prepared by Scott Squires (THANK YOU). Lunch was picnic style at the Arkansas Visitor Center and we all enjoyed a welcome hour in beautiful weather out of the bus and vehicles. Passing into Tennessee over the Mississippi river was beautiful and we arrived in Jackson, Tennessee last night about 7:00 and were welcomed into West Jackson Baptist Church with open arms.

I noticed that almost all of Arkansas and the beginning of Tennessee look a lot like East Texas except very green and all of the ponds were actually full of water. We are looking forward to travelling across TN today and seeing the mountains. We will arrive in Salem, VA early evening tonight.

Everyone traveled well today and the 13 hours passed by before we knew it. We are doing a study in James and it is starting off great.

Please keep praying for safe traveling today and we will post photos tonight.
