Wednesday,
Cataline’s home – Floyd and Phil continued work on the front porch railing, and Dale finally emerged from the bathrooms (he had been sanding & spackling for two solid days), and joined the porch railing crew, finishing the porch area and now working on the stairs.
Maggie and Judy continued painting, finally finishing the primer and two coats of paint in the kitchen, dining & living room, and primer in one of the bathrooms. Thursday the ladies plan to finish painting both the bathrooms, and then the window/door molding arrived late in the day … Maggie and Judy will be painting that tomorrow.
Cataline and her daughter Kathleen stop in daily, and are so happy with the progress
. Cataline who is all of 4’6” has been helping us paint the lower sections of the walls. She has shared her story, telling that she, her wheelchair bound husband and daughter had to evacuate, and live on the fourth floor of the hospital where she worked for almost a month, until they could leave. They moved to a family member in Texas, where they lived for 19 months. Finally arrangements were made to move into a FEMA trailer, which was parked in the back yard of her home. When she arrived home, she found that items in her home that were not ruined by the water were stolen. Ultimately, her home had to be demolished because of the damage. She tried several other agencies, and praised God when MDS agreed to rebuild her home. It has been so sad to hear her story, but we rejoice in being the Lord’s servants, able to help her rebuild. She tells us each day she wakes up, and thanks God for the blessings of the day.
McKendall House – Remodeling:
Primer was finished on the entire outside of the house. The plumbing is finished. Drywall h
as been started in several more rooms. Oh, the two new kids arrived; Scott Eldredge and Rick Kratz came onto the crew. A shed was re-structured, and Ernie is the Michelangelo of caulking.
And … where in the world are Chris and Bill? When last heard of they were sent on another mission transporting vehicles to Mississippi. And amazingly, they just arrived.
After a wonderful meal supplied for us by our two MDS volun
teer cooks, we held a prayer & praise service. Off to a good night’s sleep - 5:30 will arrive all too soon.
