Back in Colorado

Two days ago at 12:30am the Train de Vie pulled up to mother Hyde's house safe and sound. On our way from Kansas City, we made it to Junction City, Kansas and within two hours raised $200 dollars in gas money, and spent the night. The next day somebody donated another couple hundred dollars and the gas was paid for the six of us to get all of the way to Colorado Springs. We spent the night at Mom's and then headed over to our old stomping grounds called the WeUsOur (a collective house on the west side of Colorado Springs).

Today Marcus, Tiffany, Jake, Gary, Adam, Bear, Moss (tiffany's dog), and I went to First Presbyterian Church and visited a lot of old friends, and had the wonderful opportunity to meet a number of the people who have been praying for us on this journey.

Needless to say we are more than grateful to have been blessed with such abundant provision, that we could never have asked for. Thank you for your prayers as we continue to experiment with living out, what Tony Campolo calls, the red letters of the NT.

Tonight we are going to see our friend Josh Peebles speak on St. Francis at Scum of the Earth in Denver. And after that we will spend the next few weeks here to save up some money for bus-veggification, and to finish paying of the cost of two new tires.
Tiffany and Jake will head back to California until Christian Summer Camp at the end of August.

May the L-rd be praised for the mercy he extends upon us every time we ask for it.
