Barn Raising
This past week we had 13 people from our home church in Colorado here to help with some work on our church. I won't lie and say the work was easy, but we got a lot accomplished and especially blessed the little church that we attend with a lot of work well done.
I think we all were reminded of our appreciation for modern machinery. Here we are loading a dump truck one wheel barrow at a time with material from the concrete stage inside the church that we busted up by hand. Yes, it was a little precarious, but thankfully nobody got hurt.
The large pillars of concrete in the background were also what we were able to accomplish. All told, we poured 15 pillars for a new multipurpose building, each requiring about 85-90 buckets of concrete, all hand carried and hand poured. Thankfully we at least had a concrete mixer!
