We spent the morning getting trucks and trailers loaded up and then headed out to the worksites.
"All Good, All His, All In" and "Y.I.E.L.D." started their first day at the Boys and Girls Club of Decatur. The team started right away prepping their gymnasium for a fresh coat of paint. Scaffolding was assembled and tarps placed on the floor. Eager hearts and hands worked together as they got ready for the big job ahead of them.
This team also got the chance to listen to a speaker that came to speak to the kiddos that frequent the Boys and Girls Club on the power of goals and making the right choices. These family groups have been gifted a great opportunity to serve as well as build relationships with the local kiddos and community members that will be present at this site all week.
"Tom Tom GPS" and "God's Special Misfits" started their week at Thomas Foster's home, the director of the Boys and Girls Club of Decatur. The Covenant mission team also worked at this site last year.
This team is staining the front deck of the house. They also spent their morning ripping out the bathroom floor and prepping to put in new flooring. They have a big task at hand, but were all so positive and willing to do what they had to do to get started today.
These groups will also be ripping out the mudroom flooring and putting in new flooring in that part of the house.
"Peaches" is working at Bernice Cook's house building a wheelchair ramp. This group was hard at work today framing, building, and weeding.
Lots of teamwork took place as boards were cut, nailed and screwed. And the initiative of this family group was evident as they did yard work and even washed a car.
And on a hot, hard-working day, there's always time for a little ice cream treat!
