Tuesday Night: It's really hot here and a lot of bugs, mainly mosquitoes and flies. I've gotten paint in my eyes at least twice, but whatever. I'm always incredibly exhausted, so that's led me to almost passing out on a worksite, although I have been getting enough sleep. The beds here, or cots, are squeaky and not very comfortable, but i guess that's better than sleeping on the floor. Other than those problems, it's all been great! Painting with the others has been fun, we had a lot of laughs together. We all went out for ice-cream after dinner, which was a lot of fun.

There are two bedrooms, one bathroom and a living room/kitchen in the house, each room with many people working on painting. We used rollers to paint and prime the ceilings and paintbrushes to get the edges and corners. I, personally do not know everyone on this trip and I fo...

Corpus or Bust! Arrival Update!

University Presbyterian and Westminster Presbyterian are happy to report that we safely arrived at Parkway Presbyterian yesterday evening! We have a group of 19 youth in total and 4 adult sponsors. After a wonderfully Texan dinner at a burger joint, we went to bed early (or as early as you can get youth to bed) and woke up early the next morning to get ready for our first work day! Our work site for the week is located an hour from Corpus in Refugio (Ruh-fru-ee-oh) and is a two bedroom house in its final stage of rebuilding. Our youth worked hard painting primer on walls and digging outside. Make sure to check out the photos from today!
