We made it!

by Jocelyn Leafblad | June 24, 2019 7:12 PM

All three teams arrived safely last night to our lodging in Oak Island, North Carolina. We’ll be working in the Brunswick County area this week doing construction and other community ministries. 

We made it!

Construction, day 1

by Jocelyn Leafblad | June 24, 2019 8:16 PM

The teams all split up this morning, going to different sites in Brunswick County to work on construction. Most of the sites that we will be at this week are homes that are still affected by hurricane Florence and subsequent flooding, even 9 months later. 


As pictured, the Westhaven team went to a nearby home and worked on replacing exterior and interior doors.

Group devotions

by Jocelyn Leafblad | June 25, 2019 8:20 PM

Every night we do a devotion as a group. Tonight we split off into smaller groups to discuss prayer and mediation, and then talked as a larger group. We’ve been enjoying getting to know members of the other teams through these discussion!

Iron sharpens iron

After a long day of construction for all teams, we walked to the beach for our group devotion. We talked about Proverbs 27:17, focusing on accountability.

A successful week!

We had a great day of construction and beach time yesterday, followed by a seafood dinner for our last night. All three teams are on their way back home!
