Day 5-Iron Servants & Transformers

The Transformers joined the Iron Servants today on their work site.  We met this team just in time to find the concrete truck pouring concrete for the homeowner's sidewalk.  Everyone was pitching in, whether it was carrying a wheel-barrel full of concrete, smoothing out concrete, or raking the concrete.  This sidewalk will help make the home more handicap-accessible for the homeowner.  Others helped out finishing up the painting of the trim on the house.



When I asked a few of the youth what stood out to them about their family groups on the work sites, they had a lot to share from their heart.

Corbin is very proud of all the hard work her team is doing and especially of her new-found painting skills!



Michael explained his awe of the patience shown by all the group members.  He explained how amazing it was that over the course of the week, he's seen no frustration come out in his team members.



Camilla shared that the fact that everyone is making such a big difference in others' lives is what stands out the most to her so far this week.



Garrett has been impressed with the willingness of everyone to pitch in on the work site.  He shared how the members of the family groups haven't even complained when a less popular job has come up on the work site.



Sarah has found it really special to meet everyone that is on the trip and is thankful for how close she's gotten to others through the fellowship that has taken place this week.



Tomorrow, this team will finish up their painting and work around the outside of the home to clean up and landscape.
