Day 3 - Know Sweat

The rain held off Praise God!!! All projects got off to a great start and the students are working extremely hard. You can say that HOPE is becoming contagious around here and the students are spreading it where ever they go. We have 4 projects that we are responsible for this week: project 1 - applying an overcoat on a roof, painting foundation and sanding front porch.

project 2 - painting entire home and shed

project 3 - putting up siding and painting

project 4 - working with the local housing authority: washing windows, redoing a basketball court, food drive and painting.

All of these projects are putting the hope of Jesus into these families lives that we are serving this week. I wish you could all see your kids putting other's first this week and the things that God is doing in their lives it is definitely one of the perks of my job. Todays theme was all about being born into hope and the students learning they have a definite HOPE in Jesus that will never fade or spoil and we get to share that with the people we encounter on a daily basis. Tomorrow we will be in the 2nd chapter of 1 Peter so keep reading along with us and see that we are "built into family" tomorrow's theme. Have a great night everyone and see you tomorrow - I am ready for some sleep!!! struggling with all His energy - jason
