Today, the participants were up bright and early to start their days working on homes in the Walterboro area. There are sixteen squads this week: one of the squads are working on a paint job, two squad are working on roofing projects, nine squads are building wheelchair ramps, and three squads are doing Backyard Bible Clubs and yard work. All of the squads were very productive and came back to the church tired, but safe and smiling! Be sure to support your participant by sending them ServeMail!
After the squads rested and cleaned up, we all gathered together for a time of worship. Tonight, Pastor Trey read from Matthew 14:22-33. He talked about Peter walking on water and getting out of our comfort zones. We cannot let our comfort zones define our relationship with God. His message was a great reminder to start the work week.
After worship, our students had great talks in their youth group devotional time and played games in the fellowship hall and gym. It is really cool to see new friendships form and grow in this environment. Tomorrow, the squads head back out to the sites and are ready to continue to serve!
Movin’ along,
Jenna & Sam
