Habitat for Humanity ABST: Hard Work and Good People

Somedays we are blessed with the opportunity to help good people and other days we are blessed with enjoying the company of people who were once strangers. Today we were blessed with both!

This is all we have accomplished in the last two days! We were a group where only a few of us understood terms such as crowning or studs and now we are taking initiatives and constantly asking what we can do to help! We work with Marty, Job Site Supervisor for Richmond Habitat. This man is a hoot; he knows anything and everything!

Photo above is Marty with a few of our workers.

After our workday today, we spent some time wth Webber, President of the Board of Habitat. We were able to walk to the location where the house we have started will someday stand. Currently, we are working inside of an old tobacco warehouse due to the weather from the week before our arrival. Webber showed us Habitat Houses number three and four which were completed earlier this year.

Tomorrow we have been given the opportunity to work in a soup pantry for the morning hours and then back to work on finishing the frame in the afternoon!

Below are more pictures of group members working to put this frame together!
