Amen

With a resigned draw of bated breath, a subtle sigh issued forth; a faint, fervent prayer from the lips of the congregated students fell into the pleasant, sunny air between them. The moment was a simple moment, almost expected of the many students in Kingsland Baptist Church of Katy’s mission group to Blackshear, Georgia in the muggy, so-gnat-filled-that-I-want-to-punch-kittens summer of 2007. And the day was beautiful enough, at least as beautiful as could be expected in weather so very deadly to kittens.
