"The day started off bright and early, breakfast at 6am sharp! We sent the crews off to their work sites for the first time this morning, but first started off with The Great Send Off! All participants gathered in a large circle where we rallied and got pumped up for the work the rest of this week. We had a large group prayer and everyone all rushed off for their work sites.
Participants worked hard all day long.. roofing, painting, backyard bible clubs, give away, you name it, we did it!
Participants ended the night with the Concert of Prayer. This is a special time of worship where students spend one on one time with God praying and worshipping. Students were challenged to give up something this week that hindered their life from the Lord. Each student was given a rough rock that represented the distraction or sin that hindered them, when they were ready to give it up they placed it at the foot of the cross, and picked up a new smooth clean rock. This week should be good, we are excited, pumped and ready to serve the Lord!"
Please keep praying for the team members in North Pole. They are working long hours at hard jobs they may have never performed before this week. Pray that they will retain both their energy and enthusiasm and that they will be constantly aware of opportunities to share their faith in Christ.
Oh, and that weather? It's still being a little pesky, too.

Praying for that pesky rain to stay away...and for God to be glorified in all the team sets out to do!
