The trip was worth it.
No matter what happens Tuesday-Saturday, the trip was worth it just for today. Our students were up at 6:30am, ate breakfast, broke into 3 work teams, prayed together, and then went out to the works sites. Painting, scraping, sawing, pulling nails, hammering nails, breaking concrete – they did it all and really accomplished a lot. Even more impressive than their work was their attitude. I didn’t hear a single complaint, and even when a few frustrating things came up, they responded with patience and maturity. I’m so proud of these students!
One highlight from this evening was our time of Bible Study and worship. Two guitars, one piano, shakers, a tambourine, and 14 voices smiling, laughing, and singing together – it was a sweet jam session!
Prayer Request: Please pray for opportunities for our students to minister to the men and women that we are serving at our work sites. Today we heard heartbreaking stories and we want to be open for the Holy Spirit to use us in these people’s lives.
