Day 2 - Guess what - It is still HOT!!!

















Well we completed our first day. Here are some thoughts to share with you from members of the team:

Hot and humid…no surprise – the remarkable historical features revealed through our work – cool! Larry S.

It’s beautiful in Galveston, just a tad warm! Great group of people to work with. It’s amazing how much has been done to repair the city of Galveston in just 9 months! Impressive, but there is still a lot to do. Keep praying! Sharon S.

Texas is very warm, typical! The whole team survived the first day, one down, four more to go. Lol. This church community is so welcoming. God is blessing us in all different ways. Just keep us in yours! Alex Piper

I’ve sweated from pores that I never knew existed – and I was working inside! Everyone is working hard and sweating just slightly less than the amount of water they are consuming. Steve P.
These are just a few thoughts flowing through our minds.
Day two begins much as Day one did. However - we get started 1 hour earlier! Many hours spent sweating in the sun attaching bolts and boards to steel beams in the chapel. Others have ripped out more ceilings and insulation from classrooms and the hallway. Rumors have it that some even went into the duct work! Others made the run to Sams Club and got supplies for lunch! While others still worked on a dinner that made the tummys smile!
It was a day of blessing those whom God has placed in our path!
PLEASE PRAY FOR OUR SAFETY!! Critical care is only on the mainland!! And to get there you need to be flown by helicopter!

  1. Good to hear from all of you! We are watching for your postings. It must be very hot and humid - it was 101 in San Antonio yesterday. Love the pictures! Have fun at the space center this afternoon. Stay safe!
