Our week in Sanborn went by really fast.
We left Spencer at 11:30am on Tuesday morning (11/27). We arrived in Sanborn around 5:45p.
It was a dreary 27-mile running day. It was cold & windy. I felt very sluggish due to all the Thanksgiving meals the week before. However, we endured it, and was very thankful to be in Sanborn.
During our week in Sanborn, I got to
SPEAK 19 times. By far the busiest week on the Awake My Sole journey. Got to speak at the Christian School, the middle school, the Everly high school, youth group, adult bible studies, and student's bible studies.
The week flew by, and we loved every minute of it.
On Thursday evening, we were able to catch the movie "Rise of the Guardians" in Spencer Iowa, and we loved it.
To all the people in Sanborn who made our week incredible, we just wanted to say, "Thank You so very much," especially to our wonderful host family.
