Be The Tool back in Marquette

Be The Tool is back in Marquette!!  We are working on the same project we were last time.  (not the roof-  that's done-  same house- different challenges)

Troll came back for round two, but he and I are the only repeaters from our first trip to Marquette.  Also here are Rod and Ginger, Erin C., Ron C., Matt S., and Jon and Debbie F.  Troll and I rolled into town on Saturday night to get some things set up.  The first car got to Marquette Sunday around 5:30pm.  The second one around 11:30 pm.  We are staying at the same home we stayed at last time.  There are few more people and a little tighter, but Don and Dort are just as pleasant and they just seem to roll with it.  

The things we are working on are:  taking out a wall between the kitchen and the living room, replacing the ceiling in the kitchen.  replacing the floor in the kitchen, finishing the bedroom downstairs.  We have run in to some challenges that were not expected.  (knob and tube electrical, and a clogged drain pipe in the basement that overflowed a LOT) but it is going well.  Our homeowner is very excited to see the big open space between the kitchen and the rest of the house.  There are pictures online of before and after.  -  (the link will be at the bottom of this email.)  

Thank you for your prayers and support.  We are grateful!  We believe they avail much.

--
Are you a tool?

Christ has no body on earth but yours,
no hands but yours,
not feet but yours.
Yours are the eyes through which Christ's compassion for the world is to look out;
your are the feet with which He is to go about doing good;
and yours are the hands with which He is to bless us now.  
(St. Teresa of Avila)
