Back to normalcy…

Working through scattered thunderstorms, the team returned to the maintenance needs of the camp. Dave and John continued to work on the camp vehicles. John focused on a complete tune-up of the mini-van, which involved removing the entire manifold. Dave set out to fix the front a/c blower on the Dodge 15 passenger van.

Sam, Lauren, Aubree, Johnny, Erin, Mike, Kathy D, and Tiffany worked hard to get paint on the missionary homes despite the frequent bursts of rain. Lexi, Kathy M, Amy, Justin, and Shari. had the “extra special job” hand picking paint chips off the ground with a heat index of 98 degrees.

Doris, Troyce, Amber F., and Dan continued their work building screens. Functioning screens are a high commodity at the camp. Besides the four legged natives, those with wings can drive a camper crazy not to mention the Denge Fever if there are no screens to keep the mesquites out of the chapel, dinning hall, and the dorms. The team built six screens today, some had to be completely fabricated.

Dwayne, Lisa, and Amber V. kept the grounds looking beautiful by mowing and trimming the 22 acres of camp property.

The team wrapped up the day at 7pm today with a time of sharing. Many of the comments tonight focused on how God makes us strong in our weaknesses. It was not difficult to feel weak as a result of yesterday’s events.

God bless and thanks for your continued prayers.
