We participated in the annual Project One community service
day that our church organizes. We had all 6 kids join in again, as well. Nate
worked with the High School group he’s going to Guatemala with, as a team
building activity and the other 5 worked with us. We were on a 4 acre farm,
chopping dead trees, trimming live ones, painting a shed, repairing windows and
screens, fixing plumbing issues, and re-hanging fallen rain gutters. The
weather was great, and our team was awesome. We got paired up with our old
small group leaders as well as our current small group members and all our kids
who spent the day outside serving someone in our community instead of
complaining that they weren’t getting to play video games all day. That’s
always one of my favorite parts – seeing my kids understand the needs of the
person we are serving, and putting them before their own selfish desires that
are just a part of being a typical kid. They make me proud!
