We have some wonderful news to share. Our friend Ruby has gotten into the newspaper! Her food truck to give free food to the homeless is named, "Goldie Mae's Meals on Wheels." Her goal is to do even more with her food truck. Ruby wishes that she had a pick up truck so she could bring the donated things like household goods and wood to people in need. The news is spreading about her good deeds.
After making progress on the houses, we hung out at the 33rd annual Oglala Lakota Powwow. There was lots of good, fun fair food to eat. There were curly fries, donut bacon burgers, funnel cakes, and deep fried Oreos. Oh my!
There was a lot of native music and dancing. We also got to walk around the circle of vendors, and take a peek at all of the beautiful jewelry, toys, clothes, and super soft blankets. It was also a great chance to get to know one another.

We also got to shake hands with a Vietnam Veteran, who got his metals back after being dishonorably discharged from the army - he had joined the American Indian Movement which, at the time, was considered a terrorist organization. It was also a pleasure to shake hands with other veterans and thank them, too.
When we got back home, we had root beer floats and devotions. Our friend Paul talked about how Jesus washed His Disciples' feet. We are washed by the blood of Jesus. The Scripture is John 13:1-17. Paul and Shelby came around and washed our feet and prayed personally for each of us. It was a God moment. Everyone's hearts were filled with His presence. Our feet and even our souls felt clean last night.
