Oasis: Friday{0}
Well, the week is over. I miss being there already, but my body is very pleased with the prospect of a soft bed and air conditioning tonight. 65 degrees seems about right for tonight. Below are more photos from Thursday night and Friday during the day. Huge thank you to everyone who participated and came loving these people.
This artificial leg we found in the basement, Grant loved it and in the end Mercy & Truth let him take it home. What in the world will Grant do with this thing?
More photos by clicking the link below, is this redundant?
Fans don’t work like this.
Aiden, no idea where he is or who took this photo.
I don’t know the back story for this either, I’m going to assume Todd slipped on a banana peel and dropped all that glass.
This is team two thursday evening coming back from the dumpster.
That leg again…
John Cameron is a beast. There, I said it. He is the toughest old man I’ve ever met. One night I talked Grant into giving him a a headlock, Grant will never fall for that again.
Grant & AJ in the dumpster.
Vicki, still a mystery who took these photos.
Playdough art.
Mary Hershberger.
Travis had a picture on his phone of this grasshopper from when he saw it on the bus, what he didn’t realize is that it had jumped onto him and came inside.
Friday morning Pastor Nathan made everyone his Border Mission Trip famous omelets. This year our border mission trip was to the border of Kansas and Missouri. Rather than Texas and Mexico.
Tony the Ref stayed close to his tree today with the heat being as hot as it was.
I think I may be dancing.
Check out that smirk on Tony’s face has he manually instruts this guy. He’s from some country I have never heard of.
That’s a water balloon.
Tony never saw it coming.
Ice on his head.
Water wars erupted before lunch today.
Joe attacks Chris.
This guy attacks himself.
and another.
Younger but Taller Sasse (Rachel) never saw this attack coming by Joe.
Ali and Mary in chase.
Mary is on the ground her from the force of a huge bucket of water being thrown at her.
Gracie is taken down.
Ali is attacked just as Andria get a mud war started in the background.
Joe’s face is priceless.
He’s like a confused giant dodging normal people.
I think this is Jordan getting Sasse in the face.
Lunch with parents and children who participated today.
Thank you Chris & Tammy for feeding everyone all week!
I am evil born in sin. I couldn’t resist including this.
Many people came up to go through the donations today. They were so excited and took many of thing y’all have been giving. Thank you for giving to help.
Look at that smile!
This Bible had a zipper, I asked if she liked the zipper and she said, “I loooove the Bible!”
Here Ubuntu is looting at TV, moments later he was tasered. (not really)
Not sure who donated this dress, but she was so excited she went and tried it on right away.
I was just walking by and I assume a bet was lost.
We tried to put a table in the bus, it didn’t work.
I rode the bus to take people home who live too far to walk for the first time this week. Here we all are before we left.
Next picture is inside of this building.
I carried some bags up for her and she gave me a diet coke and then kept shoving diet cokes into my hands telling me to give to my friends for thanks. Me and 5 diet cokes returned to the bus.
Just a cool church building we passed.
This was the nicest house on the route.
Here is liquor store we passed. Seem like reasonable rules.
Stop sign at the roughest place on the route.
Yes, our neighbors are watching you pull out a gun and shoot are sign saying we are watching you.
Whole complex.
Last people on the bus.
Last people off, big smiles and goodbyes.
More cleaning in the afternoon.
Found a new room in the building, Reminds me of Super Mario Bros 3.
This is a distance shot of our home for the week.
Stuff after it has been picked through. Please bring more clothe when you have them.
Kevin rocking out like it’s 1984.
Kevin in John in the dumpster.
Teresa here is hammering playdough out of a mat. Sounds like I made that up. Nope, that is really what she is doing.
Grant with his new gift. His knee is bent back incase this looks too real to you.
