the barefoot preacher

The organization that we are serving with this week, WV Ministry of Advocacy and Workcamps, takes Wednesday’s off to give groups the opportunity to do some sightseeing or other activity in the area.  We didn't travel all the way down here to take a full day off so I was told get in contact with Rev. Greg Kuppar at the Summersville Presbyterian Church to see if they might have any work that we might be able to help them with and sure enough they did.  Our students were a little sad that they weren't going to be at Betty and Bernie’s house however they were thankful that they got a day off of being up on the roof in the heat that we have been having this week.  While we were at the church in Summersville  we help organize their entire stock of food for their food cupboard and check for items that has expired, we thoroughly cleaned the room that their preschool meets in, and students got to help families who came to the cupboard to get food.  All in all it was a great day of service and when we finished around 2 or so we all went to the Summersville Lake to go swimming, play volleyball, have a cookout, make s’mores, enjoy some great conversation, and play ultimate Frisbee.  So pretty much it was a great after noon/evening as well.

We did forget to take a lot of pictures today so here are two that I was able to find and if I get any more I will post them as well. 

Please be praying that our students get a great night’s sleep to be rested and re-energized for these last two days of service here in WV.   Thanks for all your prayers!
