Linefork- Days 3 & 4


       Saturday was a great day for the team! We finished the roofing project! God worked everything out so that when we put the roofing on, everything was already matched up and squared. It was definitely a blessed project! After that was finished, we headed to Cumberland to help out at a ministry called, "United for Jesus". It's a place where people from the community can come and get clothing, food, and medical supplies for free, no questions asked. Cumberland is a struggling area right now, as a majority of the coal mines where people were employed have shut down. It was a blessing to be able to bless these people and share the Gospel with them through conversation, prayer, and faith bracelets.

                             Today before we headed home, we went to church at Ms. Mary's. It was such a great time! We enjoyed Bible study, ate lunch, and worshiped with some lovely siblings of faith. The team also went on the prayer walk where we prayed with each other and thanked God for such an amazing time and for all the blessings in our lives.

We had such a amazing time here in Linefork. God blew us away at how He brought together the team and then meshed us together to accomplish His plans. We went to be a blessing and we were definitely blessed in return. God is so good. The team is now home safely and ready to rest and recuperate. Thank you for all of your prayers and support as we were here!
