Finishing up in Wauchula

Before we get too far into February, I figured I’d better wrap up our time at Sherry White Ministries. Or at least wrap up Gary’s time (since I was off playing with the sisters!)!! While I don’t know it for an absolute fact, I’m pretty sure there was more thrift shop work for the ladies.

One of the things that Gary and Wiley worked on was moving the electric service at one of the stores so an automatic door opener could be installed. That will eliminate this –

which will be a very good thing!
But back at the farm, the refurbishing of the ‘store’ building was moving right along. Here’s a little progression from earlier in the project –

There’s still lots to do to finish it (and the deck) up, but a whole new crew is there right now making that happen!  (Photo creds for the ‘finished’ project go to Gary. Thanks, hon!)

We did manage a group shot before I left –

Pretty sweet group! Hopefully we’ll get to work with these good folks again!

As I sort through my pictures, there maybe be more to add, but hey – I have 25 more days to fill!
Thanks for stopping by –

Let the New Year Begin!

For the first time in almost 10 years we’ll be wintering in Florida! Here’s a map that shows our different locations for Jan, Feb, and March –

We’re starting out the winter ‘season’ in Wauchula where we’ll be working at Sherry White Ministries. There are several facets to this ministry, but the basic premise is restoration through Jesus Christ! We are parked at the Pioneer Village and will be working with 4 other SOWER couples. Two of us are ‘seasoned SOWERS’ having been SOWERS for over 15 years, and two are pretty new and one is on their very first project!! We’re excited to be building new relationships and being a blessing to this ministry.
And yes, we will also be enjoying the 70-80 degree days! Just keeping it real!

Thank you for your prayers as we traveled from Ohio (Brrrrrr) to Georgia (Brr) to our current spot in Wauchula (Ah….) Yes, I’ve dug out the capris and the flip-flops! And it feels pretty good!Steph

PS – It’s after 9PM and it’s STILL 76! Crazy, right? I’m thinking this Floridian Winter is going to work out just fine!
