I'm so excited this week because my home church is in town and they brought my oldest brother. They left Des Moines a 6:30 p.m. Saturday night and arrived at the Yellow House around 11:30 Sunday morning. We went to lunch at VooDoo BBQ and they enjoyed being able to eat outside in the warm weather.
Sunday afternoon Andrew, Jen, Kevin and I took a trip to Starbucks on the way to pick up Marc at the airport.
It's been so good to have my brother here. The team has been working on two Habitat for Humanity homes about two miles from the church. The site supervisor is actually an Urban Impact employee who helps us maintain our relationship with the organization and help rebuild our community.
Monday afternoon I found some time to joine the team on the site and they even let me work some. Andrew and I framed some windows, although I didn't have much luck with most of the nails. I blame it on faulty nails....
Apparently it's not all work.
Tuesday I had to take pictures at all the other worksites but I stopped by for lunch. Tonight we are headed to Trinity Church to hear from Pastor Michael and have a worship service with the teams staying there.
