blogging hard, or hardly blogging?


Hello again! This week our visiting volunteers are from the Faith Christian Reformed Church in Chicago, Illinois. We also have a guest all the way from Michigan. Her name is Angie and she is really excited to be joining Faith CRC in helping our community.
Part of the group was sent to the Green family's home to tear down an old shed, and replace it with a new one. Their project is a perfect balance between destruction and creation. It's beautiful, really. As you can see, they just went at the cement blocks like angry apes, swinging sledgehammers and crowbars like nobody's business. I originally thought tearing down a big cement structure like that would take all day, but they did it in a few hours. Impressive.

Another division was sent to continue the work on the Patrick family's future home. They spent most of the day nailing siding to the walls, as you can see from the photo. Can you tell the difference between those who were really working, and who were just posing for the camera? If you can't, far be it for me to ruin the surprise.
Well, that's it for me. I'm sure I'll be talking to you again real soon.
