A day of good work

Monday we started off our day with a morning Devo from “tricky” Pat Gutherie. After Devo we lost Konnor, Katie, and the Crossville group, however, as the trip comes to an end and we lose people we just have to work harder! We had a medical team, daughters of the king, food distribution, and a housebuild in honor of Whit Robertson, Tammy Robertson’s son. The medical clinic saw about 170 people, daughters of the king washed around 30 girls hair, the food distribution gave out around 70 bags of food to families, and a new house was built for a family of 3. Once everyone returned (and showered) we had a fan favorite meal of spaghetti and a great devotional lead by Chad Chapman. After everyone played cards and finished their ice cream it was lights out to prepare for the next day of work! Blessings, Hope

The other half of the group built a house for Becky Beggs. The team included all of the FCA and Bell Shoals people and they worked with all their heart. After their build they also got to go to Mi Esperanza. When we all got back we had homemade pico and chips for dinner which is a team favorite! On Sunday we went up to the Tierra del Padre for church. We have visited tha...

Spiritual Gifts

Yesterday we began our day with a devotional from Caleb Beggs. We sent a team to Didasko orphanage to hang out with the kids and bring enough food for months. The medical clinic saw around 250 people and they were able to meet many peoples medical needs. A small group went to Mi Esperanza to be guinea pigs for the students at the salon. Some of the people on that team now have purple hair and pretty nails. The last group went to a house build that was sponsored by Patty Johnson’s team and was built in honor of JD Burkhart. Carrying the wood to the site was quite challenging but the team persevered and checked their hearts. We said goodbyes to members of our team yesterday since the Flannerys and Hills had to go back home. Last night we all took a spiritual gifts test given by Chad and then got into small groups with people who had the same gifts. He gave us challenging questions to get us thinking about how we can best serve the Lord. After that we played games and then got some much ...
