We had a work day with solid rain in the afternoon. Thankfully with the finished roof, plenty of work is being done. Duct work is being hung, sheet rock is getting up, more inside walls are being framed.
This week, the middle school students from Jacob's Well are having a local missions experience. During the afternoons, the group of 35 students are serving downtown at the B-Side Community. This week, they served meals, led children's ministry activities and painted a rental home associated with the ministry.
Middle school pastor, Paul Behnke, youth leaders and the students are also helping out at the construction site in the evenings. They are handling the kitchen and construction clean up responsibilities for the week. Builders For Christ leaders have also given the students some building tasks to help get some materials prepared for the next day's work. A benefit of the students being on site has been to hear from them. During meals, students have been sharing their testimony and what their youth group means to them. It's encouraging to see youth making their faith their own and finding community through youth group.
