Hey guys! This is Hunter I'm So excited to be posting today! The last few days we have been serving God through putting siding up on a house for a guy named Spencer. Spencer is a guy who has had some struggles in the past and he is wanting to learn more about Christ and how he can change his ways. Please be in prayer for us as we impact him while working on his house for Christ. Not only have we been able to serve God through our work site but we have been able to serve the community by doing VBS based off the armor of God. Yesterday we all had the chance to interact with young and older children and telling them about God and how we can stand firm in him. We all had a blast learning about the breastplate of righteousness, the belt of truth and the shield of Faith. After we did crafts we went to the splash park where we all got soaked either by children or just by wanting to get wet. After we dried off a little we all put our names in a hat drew names and went to good will to find a piece of clothing $4.00 or less. Personally I had a really small girly outfit with a bedazzled heart on the front of it. (Pictures to come) we all had crazy outfits. After we got dressed into our outfits we went to Sonic and got the MOST DELICIOUS FOOD EVA! After we ate, every night we have what we call Team time where we have growth journal, bible study, and evaluation. Today we had the great pleasure of attending Manchester Baptist Church and growing on a Sunday morning. We all were able to interact with a morning "bible study" as pastor Ken would call it and talk about Isaiah 53 and how his prophecy matched exactly how history happened. Then after that we took in worship in John 19:16-27 in how Jesus died for us and how he wasn't just a clean white man with holes in his hands and feet but he was crushed for our sins and brutally beaten.
Some things you can pray for us: Spencer as we impact him in building his house, the VBS kids that came out with us yesterday, us as a team and team communication, enthusiasm, and encouragement.
Everybody is doing great and having lots of fun serving The Lord. Hope to post again soon.
Thanks y'all!
