Canyon Hills Community Church

Breakfast Church starts at 9:30. While everyone is enjoying breakfast under a large tent out in the sensory gardens on the church property.  The sanctuary is being renovated due to the damage made from Hurricane  Ian. Worship began around 10ish with singing and an excellent sermon on The 23 Psalm.

Disaster relief has many hats but this hat was worn by Ms. Lisa. Sunday afternoon we arrived at Ms. Lisa’s home to help with many small repairs she needed done to her home after the hurricane hit. We were able to complete many of the items on her list but most of all we got to hear her stories about how God was faithful in all her trials. (Ms Lisa is the woman in the group picture with her Easter hat on)

Can you think of a better place to spend time with God than the Gardens full of God’s creations? We all met under the gazebo to start our day off by asking God to direct our paths and give us opportunities to be witnesses  for Him. 

An Elderly gentleman, who had just finished chemo treatments, needed some touch up work in one of his rooms and our leader was just the right one for the job. Disaster relief isn’t all about working on the home but also uplifting the person who lives there. Loren was able to share some special conversations as well as pray together. The next day a team went over and not only painted the wall but the entire room. 

Today we framed the interior walls of the house. 

The fruit and vegetable trucks came early this morning and we helped prepare bags of groceries for the following day when they will be given to over 430 families. 

After preparing several boxes to be distributed to the community, we were ready to start the line running. 

Our last night at Wintergarden Church one of our team members used his plumbing abilities to fix the sink in the church kitchen.
