Project One 2013

Add caption




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!
