More Trip Preparations

The Team at Training

On Saturday, July 27, several of the team members spent two hours in a training session on how to hang drywall (aka sheetrock).  Thanks to the Home Depot on University Parkway. Their team is very knowledgeable of all the steps and special considerations in hanging drywall.  Of course, Ray and Roger were already knowledgeable and yet picked up a few tips and techniques from Justin.  Dan helped and Arlyn supervised and arranged the session for us.  Thanks, guys!

Arlyn at Home Depot
This week, everyone is packing up what they think they will need to bring to Minot, ND.  Then, Lynn and Steve in their car and Roger on his motorcycle start their drive northward just under 2,200 miles.  Ann and Ray will arrive at the airport on Saturday while Jane, Fred, Rick and Noah will be driving from Colorado.

Prayer Shawls
We are asking members of the congregation to write a short note to the people in Minot this coming Sunday and on August 10.  Pastor Mark will be flying in to Minot on Monday, August 11 to meet up with the team and will be bringing along the note cards from our congregation to Minot.

Also, three prayer shawls are being taken to be handed out to those individuals in Minot in need.

Our next post in this blog will be when we arrive in Minot to start our servant week.  Thanks for your interest!
