HAPPY, HAPPY FRIDAY! YAY!
Everyone was super sad that today was the last day on the work sites but from the beginning of the day all participants were excited and eager to take on the day! It is very exciting to say that all the projects were completed this afternoon on the job sites, God is so good!
This week a lot of the squads were blessed to be able to connect and form relationships with their homeowners. Three of the homeowners were able to come eat dinner with everyone and attend our final worship service! We loving seeing the impact that these students were able to make on the small town of West Frankfort.
During our Closing Celebration tonight, we recognized all of the hard work that was put into this week from all of our students. We had a shout out to our Band, Project Coordinator, Construction Coordinator, Construction Captains, Squad Leaders, Kitchen Staff and Volunteers and everyone cheered! Our project would not be able to function without all these amazing people!
Tonight our speaker spoke about what Jesus did and how he was first to love. He ended the night by daring us to love like Jesus does and letting everyone go home with the love of God on their minds.
It was so hard to say goodbye to everyone here in West Frankfort before groups leave in the early morning. We wish safe travels to everyone as they head home and hope they will remember their memories from their time here in West Frankfort.
Thank you so much for checking in throughout the week and showing your support. We hope everyone has an amazing week and a great rest of the summer!
Signing off from West Frankfort,
Jordan & Chad
