After Ryan A. and I were greeted by the red wasps, we started our schedule for the day at 9 a.m. with "orientation" of the ministry of FOA and a tour of the ministry. For more information on FOA, you can check out their blog.
We then headed into town for lunch at the Froghead Grill. In case you were worrying, there were no frogs served as part of the menu but they did have catfish and of course, some fried pickles. However, most of our group stuck with burgers and wraps - playing it safe!
After lunch what better place to go than the Mecca of the south - Bass Pro Shop. And boy was this store a doozy! We went to the shooting range inside (don't worry moms, they were laser guns) and looked around at all the hunting and fishing stuff. It took a while because so much was camouflaged. He he, I crack myself up. Okay maybe not so funny...moving on.From there we saw a few other sights in Jackson including the Ross Barnett Reservoir and then drove on a portion of The Natchez Trace back to FOA.
After about an hour of free time, we loaded back up and went to The Club to enjoy a cookout and time of swimming with some of the youth from Riverwood Bible Church. We will be teaming up with this group this week to lead these 5 Day Clubs. Many thanks to Mr. Miner who allowed us to use his club for this purpose and provided the food for us.

We have to be well rested - we've got a full week ahead!
