Our Spur of the Moment Sojourn Seed Project

This was our Sunday with Sam & Riann Zink. It was a ton of fun. Most of the crews that we met were from out of state. Some of them had been sworn at by locals while others had experienced similar kindness from Louisvillians. We were inspired to do this after we found out most of these crews were working 15-18 hour shifts nearly 20 days straight. One of the major highlights was that we got to serve the crew that had a young fellow die. It was hard seeing the emotion as they were interviewed by Fox. Overall this was a fantastic experience, and we hope to have inspired more hospitality to these hard workers.

Wow! You guys are awesome! What a great idea. It’s true these guys have been working so hard …. we’ve been praying for them every day. We cheered and screamed out in our front yard for them today when our power came back on after 8 days….thanking God for all the crews that came to help our Louisville. We’ve been giving them a “thumbs up” every time we see them. You did a good thing to let them know how much they’re appreciated.

God Bless,
Deb Dale
