Day 1- Brittany

Hi everyone!  My work group had a really productive first day here.  Our wheelchair ramp is actually starting to look like a ramp.  When we arrived at our work site (a trailer home) we met Donna, the homeowner, whose daughter in law had a heart disease restricting her to a wheelchair.  She told us the story about her husband’s death and how she had turned her life to God and taking care of her daughter.  It was clear to see that the makeshift ramp already in place that she had made herself needed a facelift, so we took the whole thing out and started fresh.  The first time I saw God was in Pastor Rob.  The way he connected with Donna and was able to use his construction know-how to get our ramp progress in motion really made me see how God’s does his work through him.  His passion is incredible and inspiring.  I hope one day I am able to fulfill my calling in the same way he has fulfilled his.  Today has opened my eyes to God’s supportive hand on all of us, guiding me in my decisions the same way he does for you.  I’m praying for everyone back home that they too are able to feel God’s grace in them and feel comforted by his presence.  Have a great rest of the week!
