Welcome Virginia!

These People are "crazy"
A night of devotions!.

Hello Everyone. We want to welcome West End Assembly of God from Richmond, Virginia. Here are several pictures of them when we all gathered on the porch after dinner this evening. I try to take one picture of the team acting "normal" and then I take another picture and ask them to be "crazy". As you can see from the picture they acted crazy and they had so much fun doing the picture. I is such a blessing to see teams that come here have fun while they are building someones home. Seeing the devastation every day here is a little depressing sometimes so when a team is here and just includes you in the fun it is wonderful. They are such a caring group of people. All the kidding aside, in the last picture is when they were having devotions and we joined in with them. Everyone was talking about their day and what they did. Some of the ladies never hung dry wall or put a floor together but they do now. They wanted to stay longer and keep working on the house as does all the teams that come here, and just want to do as much as possible.

They have been working in Marguerite's house. They got drywall done, windows sanded and ready for painting, flooring put down in 1 room and half a floor finished in another room. Marguerite was so happy and smiled all day. Her husband came out and talked a while with Joel. He has been very sick and his ankles swell up to where he cannot walk. Marguerite has been sick also and it's all because of the trailer which can make you a little depressed. Please keep them in your prayers. We believe they will be in their house by this weekend. This team is determined to see them back in their house before they leave. They are doing everything possible to make it happen.

I just want to say that, I don't think we have NOT ever had a team that has not done everything they can, to do all they can, to try to get a person back into their home. Every team that has come has had a wonderful spirit and love in their heart. Thank you all.

I will have more pictures throughout the week of the progress at Marguerite's house so keep looking and praying for her, the team, and us. We will all be praying for you. Until next time... Lots of Love from..Allen and Dovie..
