I started back at the barn, digging for treasures. After about an hour I got called to assist on a roof repair. It was supposed to be a small leak however, when we got there we discovered he had a rather large hole in his roof.

It was from a tree which had already been removed. Robert arrived this morning from Jersey, what an interesting guy. A carpenter by trade but can fix just about anything. Or so he says and I believe him!! He patched it up and I assisted. After several hours we headed back to camp. We had some lunch and we were both pretty tired but, we had another job. A house had its insulation blown away by the river. It was just supposed to be a job that needed finishing up and shouldn't take too long. We both put gloves and masks on and made our way under the house and put in insulation.

Then we realized more than half the house was not done and we don't have enough material. We did what we could and then headed back to camp. I am tired. Took a shower at the house and feeling much better. I fly home tomorrow. It has been an amazing journey. I have had a number of interesting conversations and have enjoyed working with a variety of people from various backgrounds who have a deep desire to help others. God making a way all along and those perfect opportunities for conversation. Sometimes knowing what to say and other times thinking this is way out there and not sure how to respond other than praying as I go.


Thank you all for following my journey and supporting me in prayer and monetary gifts. The totals were:

$550 Walmart cards

$925 Home Depot cards

$950 Lowes cards

$1670 Cash

A grand total of $4095

What a blessing to be able to share.
