"You are his image bearer, tasked with loving his fellow image bearers through the ordinary faithful work that greets you every morning."
-Courtney Reissig, "Glory in the Ordinary"
Our week of laughing and working together in Siloam Springs brought us so much joy.
But we finally said goodbye. After a month on the road, it was time to turn our van towards our hometown and move into our little house.
When we arrived, we found a clean house, a beautiful sign, and a thoughtful stash of food. Including lots of coffee beans. We felt loved and welcomed.
And then when the muscles showed up, we were able to unload the storage unit, set up all of the beds, wash all of the dishes, and get almost everything unpacked in only one day.
It was exactly the jumpstart we needed to help us settle in quickly and to help us build a little bit of margin into our transition. We're so grateful for the many people who gave of their time and energy to help welcome us back to Arkansas.
