Mystery Trip Update Day 2!!
No one knew where the day would lead when we climbed into the vans this morning. By sunset, we'd crossed hundreds of miles, explored a few hidden gems, and added another unforgettable chapter to this Mystery Trip.
📍 Today's Destination: Blue Earth, Minnesota
Home for the Night
Trinity Lutheran Church
Blue Earth, Minnesota
💙 An LCHope Connection
Blue Earth has some special ties to our LCHope family! Sainted members Milo and Kathy Olsen, along with current member Randy Mensing, all grew up in the Blue Earth area. Kathy and Randy attended St. Paul's Lutheran Church, located just a couple of blocks from where we're staying tonight, and Milo grew up about seven miles away in nearby Frost. It's been fun to discover these meaningful connections as we travel!

Favorite part of today:
“My favorite part of today was remembering Jacob hitting his head during the escape room and when we went over a bump and PScott hit his head on the roof of the car! The service work was memorable too.”
