Service: It’s What’s For Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
SALT has worked hard today. So hard in fact there was no time to update everyone until well after 10pm Tuesday.
The groups split up today with one group returning to the dam and the other group traveling to a farm where we met Pr. Ron (the farm has been in his wife’s family for years.) The farm isn’t far from LOMC and many campers throughout the summer have enjoyed helping out there.
The dam rebuilding group spent much of the day moving rocks in the effort to bring the dam back in order. Why are we building a dam anyway? The dam in Gale Creek diverts fresh water into the adjacent pond at LOMC providing a healthier environment for fish and other creatures while helping maintain a consistent water level. The group today put in a lot of hard work.
Meanwhile the farm group picked apples, painted a fence and cut down tons of rag weed and other brush along both sides of a fence that needs to be replaced. With the sounds of cattle in the background and corn field on one side, the group accomplished quite a bit.
A hot sunny day for everyone and meals included pancakes, PB & J, and fried chicken (not all at one meal thankfully). The group got needed time in the pool, somehow snuck in some archery,Bible study after dinner with Mr.Rob, and campfire up near Timbers Village. A special treat this evening, Pr. Zach led us in Holy Communion after campfire and bedtime awaited. Yet, the adults all wonder where the kids still had the energy to gallop back to their cabin?
Tomorrow more of the same as the two groups switch places at the dam and farm. Please continue to pray for us as we serve the Lord!
