Happy Father's Day! Schweigers arrive!

June 16, 2013

We got up to our first buffet breakfast.  They had it ready and waiting when we came down to the Black Orchid (name of the restaurant).  We loaded up the bus and headed for church at Sacred Hearts.  Fr. Lorenzo led mass with Deacon David assisting.  The little altar server was precious.  This must have been some type of children's mass as they led the prayers of the faithful and the readings for the day.  During church our first big rain came through.  It was very loud and had a huge downpour with it.  The sun was shining by the time we were all done taking pics and were ready to leave.

Here is the little altar server boy!

Lunch was great and the Schweiger's arrived just in time to eat with us.  Then we met in our "teams" to make sure we were ready to go for Monday morning.  We re-loaded the bus and went back for mass in the evening.  Fr. Leo led mass and Deacon David assisted again.  After mass, Jason (the Chalk Guy) led us in prayer and then preformed a great  chalk drawing for the group.  It was a very prayerful experience!  The people loved it and the crowd was pretty large.

We got back to Windy Hill, took a dip in the pool to cool off and went to bed.  BTW, Cabin 17 is the best around, just ask Cabin 13!  :)  (inside little humor)

gives you an idea of the pool
