Hi everyone. We are part way through the first week. There are five couples working this month.
The ladies are cleaning, sewing and working on a mailing. They did have time to go for a hike to a lake about a mile away--through the pine forest. This camp and conference center is on 80 acres about 5 miles from Prescott AZ. The 6300 ft elevation keeps it rather cool--in the 60's today.
The men are building a retaining wall, running water and elect to the welcome center and roofing a Hogan (tepee shaped building). While trenching by hand we cut into a 50 pair telephone line--have no fear--God provides--one of the SOWERs was a professional cable splicer--we have all but one phone working--will figure that one out tomorrow.
I have some pictures but will include them in the next post--maybe this weekend.
I can hear the chapel music way across camp tonight--a group of 6th graders are here from a christian school in Phoenix. Also a college group is here--both groups leave tomorrow afternoon--no more food service until next Wednesday when a new group comes. We eat in the dining hall whenever food is served.
I am rather lost without cell phone service--I have to drive toward Prescott on a very curvy mountain road 35 mph speed limit to get cell reception--if you call, leave a message. Or better yet send an email and I will call you.
We are enjoying this project--lots of work, fellowship and food. Continue to pray for us. Thanks, nlsower
