Tour '03 Day 3 We started our day with french toast and bacon and prayer led by Craig Davis. As the sun started to rise, one team went outside to start cutting down trees, hauling them to the burning pile and making a bonfire. There were so many branches that it took a ton of woman and man power, all day long, to create the large fires that burned. The benefit of working so hard to build these fires was to stand by the fire and heat up. The scenary is beautiful and the team work makes this trip even better. The other teams worked on demolition, which included ripping down walls and dodging loose debris. We learned the importance of wearing face masks, as we climbed higher and worked in teams in the tower. It is great knowing that what we are doing will help the Hill family and the overall vision of the Overtoun House. One of the coolest things about the day was to see volunteering youth come to the house to help, we were very grateful. After all the day's hard work, we had a wonderful taco dinner with fellow workers and people of the community. After dinner, part of the team went on a "home visit". The group was warmly welcomed by the family and the other members as they sang, ministered, worshiped, and enjoyed company and fellowship over wonderful chocolate cake and ice cream. The rest of the team enjoyed a hilarious bonding expierence over the card game "UNO". As the teams came together, the group broke off and everyone(or most of everyone) fell asleep quickly. - Aubrey Myers and Erin Thueson |
