Work today was meaningful. We actually accomplished the task…we moved one pile to the street. Not just dirt, but wood and concrete. It is a good feeling to have finished this task.
It is still amazing to see the damage. Today we saw a car totally crunched into a ball. We also had the opportunity to see a church that was destroyed but the cross still stands.
Each day we see something that really affects us. Today we passed an empty lot that had wreaths and crosses on it. It is an eerie sight knowing that people were killed here.
Highlight….Ben and Erik (aka: Sasquatch and Chuck Norris) were superheroes at cleaning up the big mess.

The heat is starting to wear on us. Three days here with all three having temperatures over 100 degrees. Needless to say, we are drinking a lot of water and Gatorade. We have also been blessed by other volunteers who have come by our work sites and offered us water and snacks.
Please continue to pray for patience, rest, and cooler temperatures. We know that the work we do is for the glory of God and we feel very blessed being here. The people of Joplin and the surrounding communities are so thankful. They continue to shower us with thanks. It is a good feeling knowing that we are impacting the community.
In His service,
Terry
