FCBA Day 11- Meridian to Brandon MS



Today was a great ride- 80 miles with a 17.3 mph average speed. We’re at Meadow Grove Baptist Church in Brandon, MS. Tonight they provided Sony’s BBQ and we attended Wednesday services where we spoke before the congregation. Tomorrow morning they are providing a hot breakfast.

 The Fuller Center for Housing isn’t a household name, so we’re getting a lot of interest and enthusiasm wherever we go by groups interested in forming new Covenant Partners. The Fuller Center Covenant Partners provide toward the mission of the foundation while maintaining autonomy; each is associated with the parent foundation and is free to provide as they deem necessary in their communities with minimal supervision from the home office.

Tomorrow we cross from Vicksburg Mississippi into Tallulah Louisiana via the old Hwy 80 Bridge. It’s a decommissioned bridge and we have to sign a release to use it. Just another day of adventure.
