Faith is showing off the newly painted south side of the church. Jackson in the background has graciously taken on painting up high and dodging the wasps.

Each evening we as a team share a devotion and share our highs and lows of the day. We praise God for His provision of needed supplies at just the right time and the neighbors always willing to lend us a tool or two or three along with a few stories.

Several of us are really sore tonight, so please pray for God to restore our bodies and give us restful sleep.

Rocky’s fence is now upright. Flood waters 18 months ago pushed it over.

Adam dug a trench today the length of the fence and dug holes where each of the posts are. Jerry Shaffer in white is instructing Adam in setting the corner post. The older gentleman is Rocky.

If everything goes as planned tomorrow, they will récement the posts and stretch the fencing.

Another productive day on our mission trip! Today, our team scraped away the peeling paint at our host church and began applying the first coat of fresh white paint.

Tomorrow, we’ll return to complete the second coat.

Dancing sisters, hard work, and sweet fellowship! 💙

After a much-needed shower, we enjoyed a game of Scrabble and are now awaiting pizza, team devotions, and some well-earned rest.

Greetings from West Virginia!

While waiting for the rain to clear, our mission team spent today scraping one side of our host church in preparation for painting. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve and share Christ’s love through our work.

Please keep our team, our host church, and the community in your prayers. We hope to finish scraping and begin painting tomorrow as we continue this meaningful project together.

🌿🦜 That's a wrap on Rainforest VBS 2026! 🐒🌴
What an incredible week of faith, fun, friendship, and adventure! Throughout the week, our kids learned about God's love through Bible stories, music, games, crafts, and so much more.

A heartfelt thank you to our amazing volunteers, leaders, and families who helped make this week possible. Your time, energy, and servant hearts made a lasting impact on the kids in our church community.

We are grateful for every child who joined us and pray that the lessons they learned this week continue to grow in their hearts long after VBS has ended! 💚
