Harvest Bible Chapel (IL) - March 2010










When HH2G first hosted Harvest Bible Chapel, the team was over 100 people strong. The church facilities were brimming over with all the energy that 95 high schoolers possess. The students and chaperones arrived, a tremendous amount of work was accomplished, lives were deepened spiritually, and some residents of New Orleans were much much closer to a reconstructed home... the week went beautifully!
This March (2010), HH2G was privileged to host the Harvest Bible Chapel Cyrstal Lake campus again. We welcomed back many familiar faces, and got acquainted with many new ones. The volunteers split into 2 teams:
The first crew worked on the home of Mr. DeSoto "Bobby" Jackson. Half of the team hung sheetrock inside the home, while the other half scraped, primed, and painted the outside of Mr. Jackson's home. The amount of work that this team accomplished in a week is incredible! Mr. Jackson still needs mudding, taping and sanding, and painting done on the inside of his home, but he will be back in his home very soon.
The second team worked on the home of Mrs. Banks. The team worked their muscles doing some demolition work in the home, as well as completely reroofing the house!
