The last two days have been CRAZY! I would have love to put up a blog last night about our day but we were all super exhausted. So we will rewind to yesterday morning...
Today was the first day of our house build. Our typical schedule is breakfast at 7, devos at 8:15 and off to the build site/ministry site by 9am, back to base by 5:00 pm, dinner at 5:30, worship at 7:15, team time, then lights out at 10:30pm. Just to give you an idea of what our days are looking like generally.
We had an amazing first day at the build site, everyone was contributing and working well with one another. Each of us were learning some new skills, whether with a hammer, a saw, or with a paint brush! By the end of the build day we were actually pretty close to being done the house. A few of our girls had the privileged of bonding with the kids Daniel and Nicole and played with them for most of the day. Always love seeing a team of people come together to accomplish something and share a purpose. In one day.. The walls were built, painted, and put on, the roof trusses were made and put on, drywall was put up, windows and doors were put in, and the trim was started! needless to say it was productive!
In the evening we experienced a meaningful time of worship and an awesome message from our speaker Mark, which hit the proverbial nail on the head. For myself and for a lot of our team members. Living into who God says we are and not believing the lies told by the enemy about ourselves. Loved it! That led us into our team time around a fire pit where we were able to dive deeper and share with one another and encourage each other.
Love our team, love this place, and love what God is doing here!
