First Day of Volunteering
Our first day of what we came for. The work day starts at 7:30am with devotion and work assignments. These range from construction/refurbishing of rooms, to pool and pond maintenance, to general lobby, hall, entrance cleaning. The ladies clean rooms to various levels. The assignments handed out are for the whole day. We all stop at 9:30 for coffee and fellowship and 12:00 noon for lunch. The work day ends at 3:30.
There were two of us new couples who arrived on the weekend and there are four couples leaving this week, so there is a changeover taking place. Also, there is a convocation this Thursday evening which signals the completion of a course and there will be an open week with no classes which allows for a complete cleanup of rooms.
Our orientation has included learning more about how the Haggai Institute is funded and it is very impressive. This ministry has been operating for since 1969 and it has picked up some major donors over the years. More about that later.
After our first work day, we will sleep well tonight.
