After a long drive, we've made it to Dexter Missionary Baptist Church! We're excited for the week ahead of us and the ministry opportunities that we will get to be apart of!

Four of our team members helped unload some pre-built walls for a local ministry that will provide housing for needy families. Hope Initiative is a Christ-centered agency that is buying vacant lots and building houses to be utilized to help needy families obtain affordable housing.

Day two of working at East Marshall! It’s been hot (with a high of 96 degrees!), but the day has held some really good work and has led almost all of us to the inside of the church. From cleaning off whole bricks to filling a ditch with broken bricks, we’ve made some great progress cleaning out the building.
After a good packed lunch in some AC down the road (shout out to Kentucky Lake Mission!), it’s time to get back to work.

And we’re done here! We finished our last loads of bricks at East Marshall, and then we had a lovely time of prayer with Pastor Steve, who blessed us by telling some of their church’s story.
It was a fantastic way to finish out the work project here, and we can’t wait to see where tomorrow brings us!

We spent our last morning in Mayfield helping out a few people who were working to rebuild their homes. It was good to go into another part of the affected area and connect to the community differently than we’d been able to so far. We also got the opportunity to hear stories from the night of the tornadoes, which were very eye-opening and helped us understand the strength of the community as they’ve worked to build back.

Last night we took time to worship God together in all He’s done this week, and to reflect back on our time here. It was a beautiful way to close out this experience, and we can’t wait to see what God does through this even as we head home!
Yayyes!
