Much Work!






























Brian started our day at 7am with stripping all the wallpaper from the walls in the lecture hall. We groaned, until we found out that a steamer was involved and scaffolding:) It came off really easy with the steamer. We breaked at 9am for office and 1pm of lunch...it was off by 2:30!

In Scotland, you hang textured wallpaper and then paint it...so, we started hanging wall paper until King's Kids ministry at 4pm. Brian spent the entire day carefully scraping the intricate trim so that it can be painted. It was an enormous job that he trusted to no one.

Jana, Kim and CJ play together like sisters...dancing, watching movies and rough-housing all day long. They take turns helping with baby Garrett (the other Amy's son).

CJ, Ryan and Kristi Holland went to King's Kids Ministry with Amy today and they led the craft time. The 8-11 yr old's were actually more challenging than the younger students. There was a young lady named Tracy who prayed with Amy to receive Christ after the club was over. (She is seated on the floor in the blue jacket next to CJ in the first picture). We understand that this kind of a decision is very few and far between. Praise the Lord!

Chris and Travis led base worship tonight with some other students and staff. It was a sweet time with the Lord.

Tomorrow will be spent wallpapering and painting...our bodies are very tired and we have been working with chemicals that are a bit harmful and outdated (lead).

Our bags are here and the room is being made around the color of the new curtains. It will be a very lovely room by the time we leave.

For Christ and for you,
Amy
