Hello from the southern, tropical south (Texas).

Here is the group before they begin their day and assignments.

Bob, Willis, Joel & Rachel head off to do a day of gutting!

Chuck is on his way to Pastor Billy's house for a special project.

Ken and Pastor Billy went to another church to check out a plumbing project.

Here is Rachel - ready for gutting!

Doesn't she look like she is going into a war zone?

Or to attack bugs - "Ghostbuster Rachel"

Here is the group at Ms. Thompson's house - after a day of gutting - note how tired they all look!

And, of course, here I am at my post, with a pile of papers that Pastor Billy has saved up for me since we left in March.

I am NOT in an a/c office - the a/c is broken and it is HOT!

Tonight we had Rigatoni meatballs (thank you Asbury) for dinner.

Tomorrow is Cinco de Mayo Day and we will be having a Mexican dinner.

Tomorrow the group will be painting the inside and outside of a house near the church.

Will send more photos tomorrow.

Blessings and peace to all,

Julie, Ken, Willis, Bob, Chuck, Joel & Rachel
