Celebration in Manchester

Just watch this video:


Video: Adoption Tour celebration in Manchester.

After a couple hours to shower, eat, and relax, we hopped back on the bikes and rode over to the town square in Manchester. I wouldn't normally ride my bike on a busy thoroughfare at night, but a full THP escort made it easy.



This celebration had a band, popcorn, sodas, other souveniers...and lots of people.



Photo: Nikki was cold...so one of our beloved THP crew lent her his coat.

The most touching thing I experienced during this celebration was I talked to a woman who was waiting to adopt a child. She was hoping for a child between ages 2-6, because she had some grandchildren in that age range that she already takes care of. She was very sweet and I could tell she would make an excellent mother. She lived near where the celebration was in Manchester, and she came walking down to see what the music was. And here it was an event for adoption! I had the feeling like divine providence was taking place....just like all week.
