Greetings from Cannon Ball, North Dakota!  We arrived this afternoon around 3 PM and went straight to work.  We would appreciate your prayers; the property is in need of cleanup to be useable for the ministry.  We have lots to do, but that's why we're here.  We spent most of the afternoon getting the water running and cleaning up the church building.  We drove up to Bismark for supplies and supper.  Sheri and Doyle have been cleaning up the parsonage and will be sleeping in it tonight.  As soon as I (Kevin) sign off, I'll be joing Lynn and Billy in the church van for the night.  I'm not sure we're eveyone else is bedding down.

The DSL service is not performing at the speed it is supposed to be (groan, people at home will know how bad this aggravates me).  I'll be spending a good portion of tomorrow trying to get that fixed while most of the other men are painting and fixing things up.  Because of the speed issues, I will not be able to upload any new photos tonight.  You'll have to trust me when I say that it is gorgeous up here... absolutely gorgeous.

I've met a few of the residents here on the reservation.  They were very curteous and seemed very nice.  We (the team) look forward to meeting more of them as the week progresses.
