Day 4 - Happy 4th of July!!!
Today was another great day. Two of our teen teams continued to work on Ms. Claire's house and the rest worked on a new site. The new site consisted of putting an addition onto the back of the house. The teens were able to put tyvek around the addition, install a couple of window and work along the roof. After a hot hard day of work, the teens took their showers and had a wonderful dinner of chicken, ribs, corn on the cob, potato salad, coleslaw and for dessert, apple pie. Again thank you kitchen staff!!! Then we loaded back onto the coach and went to the city of North Charleston to watch fireworks at the River Park. It was a wonderful display and a great way to celebrate Independence Day! We got back to Christ St. Paul's late, so the teens had just enough time to grab a quick snack and then it was bed time. Everyone must have been very tired because there were no complaints. 😴
Praying for continued strength and motivation to keep working hard! Love seeing all the pictures. You are in my thoughts and prayers always. Your posts are making me hungry but mostly missing being on the trip with you all! Keep shining your lights! Two verses to remember when you get tired this week:
ReplyDelete2 Corinthians 12:9 "But he said to me: "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness:
And always a favorite Isaiah 40:31 "but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint"
