GUYS in WV
Representatives from the G.U.Y.S. group headed to West Virginia today to work with Community Crossing.While there, the group will be helping a single mother with home repair. This mother had an indoor fire that did quite a bit of damage in her house. After the fire, her husband left her and the kids. She has been unable to get any repairs completed until this time.
Pray for the team for safety in their work and travel.
Pray for the family that they will see Jesus in the team helping in her house.
Pray for Community Crossing that they will be able to provide for the needy families in McDowell County, WV.
I don't know if we will get updates from the team - cell phone service is very spotty up there as limited internet service - if any.

Monday Update
Ok - It's actually Tuesday morning, but that is ok!!!
There are three teams going to work on houses. One is helping build an addition with a contractor. One is painting and scraping and painting. One is roofing and working on a bathroom. When everyone returned yesterday, they were hot, dirty, sweaty and smiling.
God is so good!!
In addition to the work teams, there are a couple of folks taking the kids to VBS. Thomas, Sophie and Eli worked hard yesterday knocking on doors and inviting strangers to join us at VBS. For 6-8 year olds, they truly showed that it wasn't about them and did things they would normally not do. We had one little girl show up for VBS, but firmly believe that we are exactly where God wants us and are doing what God wants us to do.
Evenings are filled with games, dinner, devotions and singing. New friendships are being forged. Relationships are being strengthened. Comfort zones are being stretched. God is above all being glorified!!
