Hurricane Matthew Rebuild Lumberton–Week Ending January 13, 2018

Mission Trip Adventures 1.13Volunteers this week: 1-Morganton Baptist Church with The Moores; 2-Region 4 Feeding-Nancy Johnson with Paul; 3-FBC Asheville; 4-Al Percy our assessor; 8-Billy & Robert from Swansboro Baptist.Mission Trip Adventures 1.13-001With several good volunteers from NC Baptist and Christian Aid a lot was accomplished this past week. Cabinets and molding installed and painted at the Moore home puts it as almost complete. Cabinets, flooring trim and painting was done at the MacArthur home. Tear out was done at 4 homes so major rebuild can start next week. Two roofs were replaced by the Christian Aid group along with plumbing, cabinet and trim installation, final painting and touch up at the Williamson home. Floor joist and subfloor replaced at the Freeman home and lots more. And folks wonder why we get tired. The days are long and we answer lots of question each day. BUT when a home owner walks into their newly rebuilt home and starts to tear up and you hear them saying thank you Jesus well that makes it all worth while.  The Lumberton site is currently working on 30 homes with over 70 that have been assessed.  We are in need of skilled plumbers, electricians and framers at this time.  Hope we see y’all soon.
