On Saturday and Sunday, I visited Division 7, Route 45-9. We were on L street near Commercial and Ewing (sp?) on the extreme southeast side of Chicago. Division 7 was reformatted over the summer, so that specific area did not have a bus route before now.
On Saturday morning, everyone first went to the bus meeting. After that, there was a division meeting, then a route meeting. Finally, I got on the bus that was taking all of the ladies to our checkpoint, a McDonalds on Commercial. We visited on the bus route until about 3:30, but it started to rain and hail, so we headed back to the checkpoint.
On Sunday, we left the college at 7:00. We picked up the people, dropped the teens and some workers off at the teen center, and went to City Baptist School, which is run by First Baptist Church. We signed kids in as their buses arrived. After Sunday School and church, we took a bus to the church, met our teens and other workers, and headed back to the route. When they were dropped off, we went back to the church, where I fell asleep until church time. After church, the girls got the rare privilege of riding the night bus, which takes the teenagers who stayed at the church for the sunday night service back home.
Today, classes, chapel, and work was canceled, which is why I had time to write such a long post. I've had a great day doing nothing much at all. There's a volleyball tournament in a while and a cookout by the lake at 4:30.
