Hi Justin, Tim & Ethan. This is Kenyetta, the nice lady that kept you company at McCallie's Landing in Arkansas City, while you were waiting on the pastor. Anyway, I just want to say that what you guys are doing is really awesome! It is also an inspiration to see people actually reaching out and touching others in such a profound way! Keep up the good work and stay safe on the remainder of your journey. Keep God first and you will never come in last! Talk to you guys later!!!
