12 PM - Somewhere between Redlands and Bakersfield on I-?

Just passed Six Flags. Don't know which one, though. Andrew told us the rest of our itinerary last night. Can't remember it, though. We'll be in Bakersfiled today and tomorrow, then 4 days in Sacramento, then I don't remember. San Francisco, maybe? Andrew says the rest of the trip is going to be really intense and tiring, so he let us take it easy yesterday. We went to church, went to Wal-Mart, and then we were all required to take a one-hour nap there at the church! [Andrew and Ryan never did, though.] Then we helped clean their office building and participated in an evening Bible study. Very big on the original Greek - the whole study was basically on the word "charis," translated grace or favor.

The church we were at is a Foursquare church. Andrew knew the pastor. They sang a LOT of Chris Tomlin - I believe 4 of their 6 songs were by him. *censored*

Last night we watched End of the Spear. Pretty good, but a bit hard to follow, and it was pratty gory in parts. Definitely beats the last PG-13 I saw, though. [I believe it was called The Last Emporer, and it had some pretty risque stuff, plus some dark stuff about opium addiction.]

The night before last Courtney and I were in a host home with a family that had adopted five little Chinese girls. The youngest one was two or three, and such a little chatterbox. The oldest two are twins, and were part of our workshop on Saturday. We had some trouble with their shower - couldn't figure out how to turn it on. Good times.

Workshop Saturday went OK. Very young group. Ugh - just realized I already wrote about it. :) Going to do Bible reading now.
