What a wonderful few days we have had! We made it to Milwaukee safely, without issue, despite the storms we hit on the way over. PRAISE! We spent sometime getting to know the Next Step’s Team and the other churches we are serving with. We were also split into our work teams last night. Fortunately, both of our work teams ended up serving at the same place today – God Touch Milwaukee. We were able to start on some renovations to their basement for a children’s area. Later in the morning we got to serve at their community food pantry. Even in the rain people were lined down the street! The ministry has a lasting impact on the community and it was awesome to have the students be a part of that and see them getting more and more comfortable with the people at the food pantry. After lunch, we continued at God Touch with renovations and installing security cameras at a half way home. We will spend the rest of the day doing chores around the church, bonding and in worship! The students are settling in and things are going really well. If you can continue to pray for us as the week continues we would appreciate that. Please pray that we would continue to settle in well and that we would find a good rhythm. Tomorrow we will split into two groups with one group going back to God Touch and the other going to Bridge Builders. Look for tomorrow’s update!
