Dirty Deeds, Done Dirt Cheap.
The past three days have been very busy, which is why the updates have been less frequent this early part of the week. On one of our jobs, we took a look at ourselves after a pretty long day of sanding dry wall, sweeping up and disposing of very sour smelling (and rotted) blown insulation, and various and sundry other "dirty jobs" when an old hard rock anthem came on a local radio station. Maybe not the sort of thing you'd sing in church, but the refrain from that song definitely captured the spirit -- and the facts -- of our work thus far. Dirty deeds, done dirt cheap. But, hey, when there is a tough job, there is always someone who has to get it done. This team is definitely the group of men you want on your side to get a hard job finished.
A couple of teams successfully put up siding on the sanctuary building of our host church, Bible Fellowship Church. Another group has repaired with new drywall the ceiling in a single-wide trailer that was storm damaged. We are helping a great guy named Mike Frost finish up the drywall work (sanding, mudding, taping, and finish) in his storm-damaged home. Several teams came together today and got a great start on putting in the drywall in the home of George Hicks. Brent Crabtree's team has been making fantastic progress at the home of a local lady named, Donna; they have done plumbing, electrical, and even built out walls on her house. And so it goes.
In our team meetings, we've been praising God full time for the work is allowing to happen through us, as well as for the experiences, fellowship, new friendships, and perspectives He is bringing our way through this work. Please keep praying for our team to continue to be safe in its work, and to be a good witness down here. Thanks for your prayers, support, and for reading.
