Macon Report
Here in about 12 hours or so i plan on leaving Macon. I have had a really great time here. The number of really great people that have taken me in, and over all resonce have made this one of the best cities I have stopped in by far. Ok, so i havnt really been on the road too long to stop at to many places. But here and Crawford were both amazing. I have spent most of the week at Life Center here in Macon. One of their guys, Ben, has provided me with a fouton and shower. I really like the way that this church is stuctured and laid out. Their small group are more inportant to the way the church functions than most places I have experianced. Even to the point of there being no janitorial staff at the church because the life groups are expected to take care of the cleaning on a rotating basis. People here seem to have a very genuine level of comunity and comitment not often found in my experiance. They also have some summer interns that I ahve been able to hang out with, and a contruction/rebuild project that I have been able to help out with some, so being able to help out a little was nice. How I got to life center is a pretty long and interesting story, and its a little to late at night for me to be typing the whole thing out. But in breaf it involves being told to move on from a church, some awesome people at a gasstation, several really neat chance encounters, chinese food, being taken in for the night by two seperate couples, hanging some shelves, and making quite a few new friends. I may have a partner join me for the next few weeks or so, but I think that i will have to wait a few more days before I find out for sure.

I had been out of town for a week and was so glad to see your updates when I got home. Glad your journey is going well. We will continue to pray for you at Crawford. God Bless!
Hey, Will.
Sounds like you're learin' that the church is made up of people! Some nice, some... not so much :-)! Call me when you can... we have a care package we want to send to a post office on the way or hand deliver to you.
