After our meeting last night Pastor Eddie Exposito from Sovereign Grace Fellowship spoke to the young people. That didn't wrap up until nearly 10pm, so I didn't have a chance to get any updates from yesterday posted.
Here are the notes I took on the reports each team gave us last night.
Canvassing yesterday went well. We had a ministry team stationed at the Mercy House for the day and they had a fair amount of visitors come. There will be another team assigned there today as well. Please continue to pray for the Friday night service, that God would draw many from the community to attend.
At Pike St, the insulating and drywall is done. Most of the house should be ready for painting this week, and they hope to install the kitchen cabinets and facia by Friday. There is something that they are needing inspection on from the city, so please pray that they get the inspection done quickly.
As you may have seen from the pictures posted last night, the columns for the sanctuary were set yesterday. The crew had to overcome some challenges in figuring out how to get the pillars up, but after finding a good method of setting them, it went well. They are also making good progress on the other projects, such as siding, electrical work, HVAC, and the elevator pit. Please pray for safety over the next few days as the crew works in the rafters and on the scaffolding. There is an inevitable element of danger in this type of work, and while everyone can work carefully and safely, it is still dangerous. So just pray that God's hand of protection is over everyone and that there are no injuries this week.
I haven't been outside much yet, but judging by all the coats people have left in our bunkhouse, I think it is much warmer today than it has been all week. My weather app says it is 38° and forecasts a high of 57° for this afternoon. We've been looking forward to warmer temperatures all week! : )
There are a few here who are not feeling well, probably due to the cold weather, so please be praying for general health for everyone. And please be praying for Sister Sheri, who is unable to be with us this week due to illness. Pray that God would give Pastor Mitch and Sister Sheri comfort and that Sister Sheri would have a speedy recovery.
I'm working on more picture posts and a couple other projects for the blog, so there will be more content as time allows today. : )
