My Second Day in the "Field"

My second day in the "field" as we lovingly call the flood houses was a busy day. Just like yesterday, I was constantly on the move getting tools for my teams or checking up on their progress. In these two shorts days I have learned how to drywall and other useful information such as putting weed killer on the top of a tree stump to kill the root system. I have also witnessed the appreciation homeowners express when talking to the volunteers. One of the homeowners exclaimed that the team was "a heaven sent blessing". The homeowners who lost so much truly appreciate the work the teams are doing to help them recover faster. One of the homeowners told us they had just finished the basement and then the flood destroyed all their hard work. But our team is finishing his basement for him so he can focus on his job and newborn baby. Every homeowner regardless of what task you are helping them with is extremely grateful. The work is truly appreciated and every hour spent helping them recover is an hour spent serving God.
