The three “B” churches are all here!
A scene from the Baptist Community Center sports camp.
With the arrival of the mission team from Beulah Baptist Church (Aylett, Va) joining Bruington (King and Queen County) and Broaddus Memorial (Hanover County), all three teams are in place. Beulah and Bruington have paired up for the week and will participate in various projects together.
Tuesday, Bruington prepared the meal for the ladies at Baptist Friendship House, scrubbed the kitchens and painted the picnic tables. Beulah’s team joined them to host a sports camp at Baptist Community Center Tuesday evening.
Broaddus Memorial’s team unexpectedly blessed Baptist Community Center by beginning to build a new shed. We will be able to keep maintenance equipment separate from playground toys. Praise God for another prayer answered!
The roof at 17th St Baptist is moving right along. While the roofers were hard at work, Broaddus Memorial’s VBS team enjoyed 15 children Tuesday morning.
After a long day of activities, all three teams retired back up to Ward Haven at about 9:00pm. Let me tell you, Ward Haven is a fun place to be this week. All three teams have an incredible spirit to them. Though the days are long and the work is hard, their selflessness and dedication are to be admired and appreciated.
Wednesday Bruington and Beulah will take our Friendship House teen shopping at Target for new clothes. Our final count is $150, but the two teams have indicated that they will help pitch in once we get to the store.
Please pray for the communities and people we are trying to serve. Please pray for God’s strength for when we get weary. Please praise God for all the great work He is doing in this Valley.
Please enjoy these pictures from the first two days of this week!
