Day 3: demolition begins

you can dress'm up and take'em out, but ginghamsburg servants are happiest when you set'em loose on a work project. this team of 20 is the most insanely hard-working group of people i've ever encountered. today we scraped, pulled,tore out and hauled a 30-yd.dumpster full of post-hurricane *&^%! it was incredible to watch these people work. we'll need medication in the morning i'm sure.

even thought this is a struggling church, mt. zion is also a mission-driven movement. every tuesday evening they turn their little meeting space into a free "luke's clinic," offering various medical tests and information by volunteer nurses, doctors and dieticians. every third saturday they hold a family fun fest, welcoming up to 50 neighborhood children into the church family for a morning of dancing, singing and play. God is good, all the time and in so many awesome places.

  1. wow! mt. zion sounds like a great place to focus on. you're living the quote, "success comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it." way to bring them success!
