Everyone is excited ! We will leave at 7 am and drive for about 12 hrs before we layover for the night and head out again Saturday morning with hopes of arriving at Camp Love by 5:30pm.
This year we will be joined by a team of 12 from California of which 6 are under 17years old. I also think the other 6 may be all females. The guys may be out numbered on this trip.The plan is that we will all work together on our jobs next week.
I just received an email from camp and it looks like we will be going to 3 different job locations and I saw lots of painting on the list..... guess what those kids will be doing? Wonder if they are reading this blog, maybe they will change their minds if they know they are painting. Actually we are looking forward to having some youngins hanging out with us.There will be a variety of different jobs like installing baseboard & trim, Installing Hardi panel siding, caulking,drywall, etc. So these kids will have a choice of jobs to experience.
The CA team will arrive Saturday as well except by "air", and meet us at camp after driving only 1 hr. Our drive is 19 hrs and about 1100 miles.....wish I was traveling by air too.
Keep our team in prayer for safe traveling and good health. The weather next week should be in the high 70's....I'm ready for warm weather.
Check back for updates of our work week & you might even see some New Orleans photos from our trip there this Sunday.
Praying for your whole team...wish we were there with you all. Maybe next year we will participate in another trip of some sort. We have been discussing that lately. God bless you Chris for all you do!!
