Work Day 1

Today we started our first day of work. It was an incredible day here...sunny, 76 degrees, and a slight breeze. We started with breakfast bright and early at 7:15. Then the students all had their devotions and quiet times. After that, they packed their lunches and we headed out to the work sites.

We have four different groups going to four different locations. Amy and Josh were leading a group and went to work at a single mother's home. They did yard work and cleaned and organized a bunch of clothing for her kids. They also spent the second half of the day at a local church. They did a lot of yard work there and will continue work there tomorrow.

John and Mallory led another group. They spent the first half of the day at another single mom's house. They also did yard work and worked within the home as well. They also did some childcare. Their group also went to the local church to work.

Tee and Jeremy's group spent the day organizing the yard sale items for Saturday. They spent the day in a barn organizing clothing and toys and a whole lot of other stuff!

Caitlin and my group (thank you Monica), went to a home of a lady who used to work for Step by Step. The home is kind of like an episode of Hoarders. There is a path from the front door to the back door and that's about it. We went in and cleaned it out today. We got through two and a half rooms and it was incredible the difference it made! We will be there the rest of the week and keep you updated with pictures!


After work, we came back to the church and headed out for showers. After showers we had our download time and many students had a chance to share what God has shown them over the past two days! Then it was bed time because they are all WIPED out! So, good night and we will see you tomorrow!!
