The dorms at Sacramento State University are way nice. We each have our own little room and then there is a kitchen and a couch area. There is a rec room downstairs where we played air hockey and ping pong and watched tv. Even after being exhausted after our long day on the train we still managed to have enough energy to have a little bit of fun.

This was the first time that I've ridden on Amtrak. During the train ride we played cards and apples to apples. The train ride was fun because everyone was included in the group and I think everyone had a fun time playing with friends or getting to know new friends like the Amish family on the bus. They gave us cookies.

We made it to Sacramento! Amtrak was originally scheduled to leave SLC at 1130pm on Wed20 JUL but ended up being 5 hrs late! Then we learned that the train the day before was "stuck" somewhere between Reno and Sacramento, so we needed to take the train to Reno, then take an Express Bus to Sacramento. Meanwhile, I flew out to be able to pick up the rental vans, go shopping for our lunches we'll be eating as we are doing projects and then also purchase the food for making lunches for the homeless tomorrow. It was so great seeing our group when they got off the bus in Sac!!! We're all checked in to our dorm and getting organized for this part of our trip. Please check back while we're on this trip to previous posts as we'll be adding comments from our youth and chaperones as time permits. Thanks for your support and continued prayers for this youth mission trip!
In Christ's Love,
