Hey everyone. Don't know how many of you are winking... I am, because of the itching. I got pink eye some how. Don't know of anyone else that has it right now, but whatever. I'm on antibiotic eye drops. What fun. It just so happened that the symptoms started while I was trying to shingle a roof. That made things interesting. Should be better in a couple of days.
I'm working with a guy named Sam this week. He's our only volunteer at Trinity this week. He's a building inspector from Maryland. He really knows a lot and has been teaching me as much as I can learn. We've been roofing an addition that we're building for a family at the church. It's supposed to rain tomorrow, so we'll be at Trinity building a wall in the church nursery.
The team from Wyoming finished the roof and got a lot of drywall done in the house I'm overseeing in the city. This week, there's a team from Dixon, IL at the house. They are staying down in the city. One of the guys is really good at drywalling. They should be able to finish a big chunk of it this week. (It's a good sign when the team is getting the stilts ready to mud and tape!)
Amy's feeling a little up and down. She feels good one minute and cruddy the next. Keep praying for her. And also pray for my learning. I'm confident I'll get it, it just takes some time. Continue praying for skilled volunteers and more full-time staff with construction experience. We have some guys leaving and we're looking to God to fill the openings. We're sure that He will.
Leaning on our Savior,
Phil ( for Phil and Amy)

Hey, Phil--thanks for adding me on Facebook. It's good to hear that you're keeping it real, in the realest of possible ways. Good luck in the Big Easy.
I remembered this about you just now: Me, you and Marc were outside of Lakeland one day and I was trying to be cool and talk about new bands I knew that I didn't think other people knew about so I said, 'Have you ever heard of Thursday?' to which you replied, 'Yeah, it's the day after Wednesday.'
Anyway.
Hey Stephen! How's life? Still teaching in Japan, I see. Keep in touch, buddy.
