St. Patty's Day In Iowa.




As you can see our team is decked out for St. Patrick's Day. Look at those little green Bow Ties Duane & Bill are sporting. Can you believe they kept them on all day while they worked. The ladies had Green & Gold beaded necklaces. We even had our van decorated with Leprechaun garland and Ruth had a Shamrock tattoo on her hand. Pictured with us is our new friend Don. He has been here for about 1-1/2 yrs & he lived in a church basement and now in the parsonage of a near by church. He is a retired Dairy Farmer & he volunteers all his time to help rebuild flood houses.
We never got finished touching up all the painting today, but we hung a few doors & installed some door knobs and cabinet hardware. 2 handrails got put up and we finished all the window sills...YEAH!
Tonight we ate dinner with Asbury's youth. Every Wed. they share a meal together. This week it was Goulash. There were about 30 kids there. The older ones were in the parking lot playing games when we left and the younger ones were watching an Easter movie. Everyone seems so grateful to have our team here. We have met a lot of really nice folks this week.
2 more days to go, so check back tomorrow to see what we're doing.
