This video recounts the quick 8-hour run from 6:15 am until about 2:15 pm on Friday, July 3, 2009. Kim Moore is a woman in our church whose home needed some TLC. With a few shrubs growing up the house, other vines making their home around the structure (we found one window under the vines!), a backyard that needed to be cleared... etc... as well as a need for some fresh paint... we took a crew of about 20 to the house, converging on it that day.
Thanks to her daughter, Misty, who took her to breakfast (6:15 am) and kept her away until about 2:00ish, we were able to get some work done- the majority of it before she ever showed up!
No, we didn't ask her permission- we just dug in and got it done!
Next project? Perhaps we'll find another home in need of TLC and do the deal for someone that's been gracious and serving in other ways (as Kim was- she helped organize The VIllage offices when we first launched that project just over a year ago), but is unable to the scope of work that needs to be done on their own place.
Enjoy the video- the guys enjoyed the work that's filmed on it!
to all of you involved in this wonderful project, you have my utmost gratitude and love. the Lord has been really good to me and i didn't have to do anything but receive it. all of His grace and mercy has been poured out on me, only because i am His daughter, not because i have done something special. i live to love and worship my God and King. You all have lifted a burden that was hanging over me for a while. i want to keep singing la la la la la la la....O praise Him...
thank you
kim
