[My favorite part of the experience was] watching our group, many who were strangers to each other, work together with one mission; to love and serve Christ and one anther. We were the body of Christ on day one, but together felt the pulse of Christ and one another by the end of the week.

The highlight of my week would have to be our final sweep through the church on the last day. I had worked on the church on the first and last days, and the transformation thanks to the group’s efforts was nothing short of extraordinary. I was able to finish the project on the last day and compare the finished image with the memories that I had of the church before we started working. I could really see how much of a difference we had made on the church, making all the work feel worthwhile. The hand of God was present in the finished project and I think Him for the opportunity to have such an experience.

I just loved praying together with the site supervisor, the family, their friends. It put it all in perspective to hold hands and feel the love of God in the house we were working in. The animals were in the room too, everyone who went through the disaster; we could feel the power of
God’s children helping God’s children. We all will never forget that moment and this experience.

The highlight of the week was meeting the people of West Virginia and hearing their stories.

“I think the best part of the week would have been seeing the smiles on the family’s faces when we got there every morning. It made it all worth while.
