Day 4

The last day of the mission trip did not disappoint. We switched the groups, and I was a little bummed about not getting to be with team ditch and our amazing carpenters, but day four was fun nevertheless.

Group A on day 3 had a nice change of pace after 2 days of roofing. We went up into the mountains and began replacing the porch of one of our contractor’s brothers. Tearing down the old decking was a lot of fun and didn’t take much time. Our group got to use fun powerContinue reading “Love can build a bridge”

Yesterday

The day started bright and early with a 6am departure time, much to the disappointment of Kyle. The task for the day included removing the old shingles from the roof and replacing them with new ones. With a day of roofing experience under our belts, we completed the task with much time to spare. AfterContinue reading “Yesterday”
