What a surprise to wake up to clear skies and a full moon this morning! Our first stop was to. Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Water, the phenomenal house he built using the landscape and environment to inspire and literally integrate it into the design and build. We had plenty of time to walk the scenic grounds, go on an educational one hour + tour of the house, enjoy lunch before heading to Pittsburgh. We visited Shepherd's Heart Fellowship, a church whose whole mission is to the homeless with a special emphasis on veterans. They are doing the work that Jesus did, going after the lost and marginalized, providing for them physically, spiritually, emotionally. It was the most moving way to conclude our Living Waters Pilgrimage as the Holy Spirit is vibrantly alive and active and evident in their ministry and the fruit it bears. They have helped 700 veterans who were homeless achieve independence through their inspired efforts, their love for Christ and the sharing of his gospel. We thank God for all the experiences we had this past week and for you who held us up in prayer! Special thanks to Rev Susan Tiffany and parishioners from St. Paul's Episcopal Akron, OH , St. Hilary Catholic Parish-Fairlawn OH and various churches in the greater Akron / Cleveland area who made our pilgrimage so meaningful.
