ON THE ROAD AGAIN!!!!!

Hi Gang:
The work here at Azalea Park U.M.C. has come to conclusion for the Longs' as it is time to move on to our next NOMAD assignment at The U.M. Children's Home at Selma, Ala. beginning on Monday the 29Th.

While here we accomplished some of the requested task they had for us (in between making arrangements for our "new" traveling home). Some of the things accomplished were the fellowship hall stage front, stripped and re-stained and varnished (Judy). A wooden wall -2 sides painted (Judy). The exterior hall ceiling panels secured (John) and repainted (Judy and John). 4 Handicap Parking Signs Installed (post holes manually dug, post inserted and cemented, and signs attached 6' above ground) John

John also consulted with the Building maintenance committee about the lighting problems in the Sanctuary and the Fellowship Hall. (recommended that they get an professional electrician in)

We enjoyed the Church folk tremendously !!!!!!! The hospitality of the BRUNDAGES (Buford and Fay)
was very pleasing, we have 2 new life long friends, and Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm loved them also.

Uncle Paul and Hildred were a treat to visit with and discuss the family happenings of long ago and present.

Judy says it is time to get going as John is getting to know his way around Orlando and vicinity to WELL.

Sunday after church and fellowship dinner, JUDY finally got to see the ATLANTIC OCEAN, we went over to Cocoa Beach and then up to the KENNEDY SPACE STATION.

PLEASE PRAY for us as we learn to travel in the new motor home and for safe traveling, also for the work to be done while in Selma.

I almost forgot that I had promised you a list of our WINTER/SPRING 2008 TRAVELS:
Period 1 Jan7TH -24th we are scheduled for RIO GRANDEE, Tex

The Longs- John, Judy, Bamm-Bamm, and Pebbles

Hope you are enjoying the new motor home, and that you are able to get to Alabama safely.

Kurt is at a coaching convention this weekend, and Dustin flew to Phoenix, AZ to compete.

Drew is hunting with a friend, and I'm enjoying some quiet time here at home.

I think I will work on the youth lesson for Thursday night. We had 72 kids in attendance on Thursday night. God is doing mighty things at youth group.

Well, just wanted you to know I'm thinking of you and hope all is well!
