TEXAS!

After another long day of driving we have finally settled in to our new home for the next few days. The First United Methodist Church of Dickinson is a beautiful, newly remodeled, church located right on the outskirts of Houston. We arrived at the church around 5:30 this afternoon and were warmly welcomed by Pastor Jim Jackson. After showing us around the church and getting acquainted with the space, a few of us ventured out to do some grocery shopping for the week. We managed to whip up a delicious taco bar for dinner and after that we spent the evening exploring the church and getting to know everyone in the group a little better. The winds are howling outside and Pastor Jim said they are expecting some rain and storms this week. Regardless, we are very happy to have made it safely and are expecting a great week of work for HFH. We are so thankful for the support of our friends and families who have made it possible for us to help this cause!
