Have you ever wondered what 26 linear feet of furniture looks like?

     

     Yesterday Johnny Lavender and I drove through Richburg, SC to the La-Z-Boy furniture warehouse to pick up some donated furniture that will go to the GAP for their fund raiser in the morning. The team has gotten supper and settled in for the evening. Tonight John Morris, director of the GAP, shared with the team the vision of GAP, the focus for the year, and a little about each family whom we will be serving this week.  I appreciate the leadership and the focus that they are putting on the relationships that can be built with the families and the impact the teams can have beyond the scope of the work projects.
     Tomorrow we will start our day unloading the Penske truck pictured above, a Uhaul from Smoke Rise, and a trailer from Smoke Rise filled with furniture for the sale. After we unload the teams will break out and go to the various work sites.  We covet your prayers this week for our safety on the work sites. We also pray for the families we will be working with. Pray for opportunities to share our faith with our words and show our faith with our hands.
