The GREAT Flood of ONU!
In all of my life, I never imagined I could say that I had the opportunity to swim to church. This week, I can say that I SWAM TO CHURCH! My roommates and I woke up Sunday morning to a slight rain storm happening outside our window. By slight rain storm, I mean enormous downpour. Without thinking anything of it, we got ready for church and started to walk towards the door. As I opened it, I saw what I now refer to as Lake Olivet about 20 yards from my back door. For a few minutes, the four of us considered having our own church in the apartment, but decided that church needed to be a priority. So we braved the elements. It took us about 15 minutes to walk to church which is just across a parking lot (A parking lot knee deep with water). By the time we reached the door, I was SOAKED head to toe. It was definately an experience I wasn't expecting to have when I woak up this morning. After church, I waded to lunch and then back to my apartment. My roommates and I changed our clothes and went to play in the water! All the water is gone now, but I'm pretty sure no one around here will forget the day we swam to church ANYTIME soon!
