Thursday Funday

Thursday of the mission trip held many adventures in store for our group. We began the day working on our respective projects. Michael and Nancy returned to paint at Ms. Lauree’s, Amy Z., Craig, Darby, Evan, Jack, Elise, and Laura returned to Ms. Vel’s house to finish hanging drywall, and Amy L. and Amanda went to Mr. Enrique’s house for clean-up and potentially demolition. Around 11:30 we all returned for showers and to get ready for our Trolley Hop in downtown Nashville. The group loaded the trolley and began our tour of such sites as the Ryman Theater, the Parthenon, the Fisk Museum of Art, and the Country Hall of Fame and Museum. One group learned that hopping is really not to be desired on a trolley tour. Note for the future: stay on trolley at all costs. Do not get off the trolley, or this becomes a walking tour. :D After shopping and snacks, we met up for dinner at the Big River Brewery for a delicious dinner. We then returned to the church for a closing worship led by the DHM interns where we washed each other’s hands as a symbol of service to one another. A great end to another great day!

The Nashville Trolley Tour... not to be confused with a walking tour.
