Workin' on the house

We hit the ground running today. Heidi who is our project manager had plenty of work for us to do. Since she grew up on 200 year old farm house she had plenty of practice building and repairing. She was an art major in college and knows how to handle tools. A couple of guys worked on baseboard installation with her and the rest of us worked on caulking. I took the outside windows as you can see in the photo. The neighborhood we are working in was heavily damaged. The house we are working on is a one bedroom, owned by a lady in her late fifties. The labor volunteers provide reduces the cost of repairs by 65 to 70 percent so she is able to afford the repairs. We are supposed to meet her on Wednesday so we hope to learn more about her. Pray for the workers here .....and many others over the city who are reaching out to the people here. The need is still great ....even after 3 and a half years.
