In the morning Gavin, JJ’s son, Jacob, and I helped a guy take off the rest of his roof that got blown away 2yrs ago in a storm. After taking the rest of the roof we re-roofed it. He was very grateful that we were doing this. 5yrs ago another church built this home for him. In the afternoon we went to another location when we pulled up we see Walter outside digging. He came back to meets us and asked for volunteers to help him dig were his pipe cracked. Rachel, Andrew, Jim, and I volunteered. While doing that he was asking us what was going on in America and all that. He spoke English which was nice so we had a lengthy conversation about the NFL lockout and how our economy was doing. I was extremely tired at the end of the day but felt very good and felt I had made a big difference in these peoples lives.

Sounds like a productive day!
ReplyDeleteWow, I'd say! VERY productive. TJ, what were the materials you used on the house? Was the long delay in repair due to lack of money, lack of available materials/manpower, or some other factors - did he say?
