The Before and In Progress

We've got a team of 10 joining us for the next week. They all arrived safely on the weekend. 4 from Abbotsford B.C. and 6 from Canada. We are having a GREAT time with them. Just thougt I'd post two pictures to show you the progress they've made in two days! Please pray that we may continue to have a blessed week together and that the work may be enjoyable and the fellowship sweet, and that God's love may shine through it all.
