Our work week in Mississippi is over. Although we did not work a typical 5-day, 40-hour work week, we made good progress on the house(s) on which we worked. The next group should be able to finish up in a fairly timely manner; with assistance from local sub-contractors.
My Friday was spent mainly with doors. A back door, a shed door, and a few doorknobs. I completed the installations with Aaron, our second supervisor. Each of us had only one previous installation "lesson" under our belts, but we collectively got the doors in properly leveled, spaced, and straight.
An additional shed door didn't quite fit into the opening in the shed, so that door will be left for another day. I definitely enjoyed the work I was doing, and it was also fun to get on the roof in the early afternoon to help nail down some tarpaper. The beautiful weather, 75 and sunny, was more than one could ask for in which to work. I'm thankful for the work that was completed but wish that we could spend more hours working. I'm also thankful for our group's safety and enjoyable time this week. Stay classy Mississippi.
We are headed for real winter weather tomorrow! Merry Christmas to all!

Philippians 2.12-13
Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose.
