David was in charge while we spent some time at the lake.  The Shiloh group was back for another week.  These young men really work hard.  Everyone was treated to Outback Steakhouse on Wednesday night. Wanda brought her team in on Thursday.  Don and Dave with Region 6 helped Paul cook.

This is what we did with our time off - WORK, WORK & MORE WORK.  Thanks for the help from good friends JE & Betsy Skinner and Sid and Bettyanne Shearin.

This week we had a lot of volunteers from young to senior and all came with a heart to serve and learn. The Shiloh youth had 3 adult leaders each day who taught them how to install insulation & subfloor and do roofing. They completed the sub floor in one house and stripped and shingled two homes. The Catawba group did trim work and wall painting at the Robinson home. The Branch group worked on final touch up at the Campbell and McKinley homes. The Littleton group worked at Mt Siani Church doing trim work, hanging ceiling tiles, doors and painting.  Sandy Ridge finished the subfloor and built walls at the Walker home. Although it was a hot and humid week the volunteers stayed at it and got lots of rebuild done as well as sharing the gospel.

1-FBC Southern Pines; 2-JE & Betsy Skinner; 3-FUMC Laurinburg; 4-Front Street Baptist Church, Statesville; 5-Paul & Region 3 Feeding Team; 6-The Summit Church, Kernersville.

We had a short week. Teams didn’t start until Thursday morning. The Southern Pines group continued the final work at the Campbell home.  The Laurinburg team worked on completing floor tear outs on 2 homes.  The Front Street team hung sheet rock at the Washington house and replaced floor joists at the Pone house. The Summit group installed the floor system at the Walker home and worked at Mt. Siani Church installing ceiling grid and panels, painting, electrical and trim work.  It was a little extra work getting materials to and inside homes with all the rain but as always GOD provided the clear skies when needed.   Many thanks to The North Carolina Community Foundation for their donation to NCBM so more homes can be rebuilt.  A ribbon cutting was held at the Eady home by the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency and thanks was given for all the work volunteers have provided.

Currently we have many weeks between now and December with no volunteers. If you are planning a trip give Ann or I a call.
