RVICS-ers

These are the members of our group that we have been enjoying Christian fellowship and work jobs. Ron & Rose and Willy & Sharon are all natives of Michigan. Thank you for praying for all of us.

We are only on our third project for the RVICS group. However, we are continually meeting people we have already worked with and new people. Last weekend, as you will recall, we joined another group of RVICS that were working about an hour away. This weekend we received a phone call from the couple that were assigned as our leaders for us this month but had to pull out for health reasons. We had worked with them in Texas last spring. How much fun to spend the day with them! Another RVICS couple that actually live about 10 miles away joined us, as well as, a couple that retired from RVICS about 7 years ago. RVICS is big on ice cream and we ended our time together at a local ice cream parlor---you can’t beat that!!

The camp requires many volunteers that give many hours. This weekend a men’s group from a church in Lansing have been here since Friday. It has been a bee hive of activity as we see maybe a half dozen projects being done. Yesterday afternoon, a group of girls with their counselor paid us a visit to express thanks for the work that we were doing. These children are why the volunteers come and give of their time and money.

Tomorrow morning we will begin the last half of our month assignment here. That doesn’t seem possible. Once again we will hit it hard or the kids.
