House Renovation – Dwight Gehman’s Team
Day of helping to pack, clean and paint.
Salvation Army – West Philly – Victor & Ober’s Team
The weeds just won’t stop us…even though the poison Ivy tries!!!
The Simple Way – Kensington – Kevin’s Team
Got to spend another day cleaning up a city lot, getting it ready for “Green Space” or some park like structure for the neighborhood. I talked with one lady from down the street and she says she bought her house for $12,000 a few years ago. Property values are bit different than I’m used to in this neighborhood. The guys worked hard to locate a water meter 5’ under the ground.
Circle Thrift at Broad & Washington – Dustin’s Team
Hopped on the Elevated Train at K&A, and headed toward City Hall. Transferred to the Broad Street Subway line and arrive at Circle Thrift. Good day working at a great little thrift store near Center City Phila. Finally got to see their worship space at Broad and Washington, really beautiful hardwood room with large windows looking out over the city.
Children’s Ministry – Rose’s Team
The kids keep on coming, but the weeks getting a bit better as we learn how to structure things differently.
