Today we were able to actually get down to work. The various teams left the team house bright and early around 7:30am . Sunday's beautiful weather was replaced by a cold , windy, rainy day. We were not going to let the weather get in our way.
The Four VBS teams reported a total of just over 400 kids attending despite the weather. Many kids will not participate when it rains due to the fact they only have one set of clothes and don't want to get those clothes wet. It seems each group had a great start. There will be more stories from various locations later on.
The construction team broke up into two separate teams , both might have been better classified DE-Construction teams. Shane was a one man wrecking crew with his local helper doing some repairs. The other team gutted a kitchen at the homeless shelter in Muizenburg and worked on rewiring power supplies for computers in the offices there.
Landscaping was also working in Muizenburg, their big project is preparing to pour a 20x20 concrete patio. I think Melanie, Wayne, and Tom were actually making mud pies instead of preparing the ground ;-)
The IT team, wasa busy at several sites and finished the day with training of office staff on FTP .
Hopefully we'll have some more detailed stories after we have our team briefing tonight.
