This morning our Mission Team gathered back at our "home" church, FUMC. We filled 3 rows with our new black T's and our church family came to welcome us back and thank us for our work. What a great sight it was to see a full parking lot on a hot summer morning, by the way.
The photos we will place on the blog for our final post of the week show the "finished products" of our week of hard work. We tore out the old fixtures and completely repainted and applied new molding to the Thrift Shop, we applied primer and paint to the inside of two "play houses" and then created masterpieces that looked like homes for our new little friends to enjoy, we went out into the community to check on persons with disabilities to be sure they were okay during the extreme heat, we cleaned and sorted a storage closet that was full of treasures once we organized it and we tilled and planted annuals and perennials on the side of the building of Kingdom House. Everywhere we go, people are amazed at the amount and the quality of the work that a group from FUMC Gastonia can do. Our Youth are LIVING their faith OUT LOUD every day, but especially LOUDLY one week out of each year. We should all be proud!!!
A special thanks to Becky Greene for all of the hard work she has done on all of the many Mission Trips she has taken our youth. She never ceases to amaze us all with her organization and spiritual depth she provides. Our church is so very blessed to have such an amazing leader for our youth. And no, Becky, you can't erase this part!!!
