Sun"Ray" or Sunrise????


Ray & Joan are going to install railings and ballasters on that balcony & down the steps. There is always something to laugh at when Ray is around. He IS our entertainment ! Thanks Ray.

Jim did a great job with devotions. He demonstrated that even though we may not have much in common with one another, our common bond is Christ, and it is why we serve so well together.
For those of you who have been here before, you will remember the AWESOME sunrises.
With each new sunrise in Mississippi this week, we will have another opportunity to share the Love of Christ with those around us. Remember to Pray for our team today.

What A Day !!!




Mondays are always interesting at Camp Gulfside. Seldom does anything go as we thing it will at the jobsite.
We went to 5 different locations and found that there was a lot of work on our to do list that had been already completed by the homeowners over the weekend. And there was work to do that never even made it onto the list. Materials were not at a site and the homeowners at another site wanted to tackle some of the items on our list themselves.
We took time after devotions to hear reports from each work site.
Some of the team had opportunities to listen to personal stories from their homeowners. Dave and Janet had a cabinet delivery man share his touching story with them. Many of us had people throughout the day thank us again & again for coming to help not only them, but their neighbors and family members.

Here are a few pics from our trip thus far:
