The Flexible Workday - It Ended with Fun and Games

    It was a calm and quiet morning. as usual Howard was up early, duh. We had the normal breakfast of cereal or eggs. However, Lance taught Connor how to properly scramble an egg for the first time. After breakfast, we went to help unpack crates and put together things that will eventually be sold in the store. At 10 we split up. The girls stayed to help out around the store. Molly was excited that she got to build a bookshelf (Molly is a huge book nerd and has many bookshelves herself). Meanwhile, the boys went to Saint Francis to help clean up a food shack for a powwow arena. Those activities included weed whacking, painting, roof building, and wood/metal scrap clean up. Lots of tall grass and we were provided with lunch! The guys headed back to the thrift store to help the girls finish up organizing and building items. Some visited with others, stocked the store, and shopped around to see what the store had in store for us. We headed back to shower. Dinner crew cooked up a long di

From the Hot Sun to the Holy Man!

           Started off bright and early this morning with Howard brewing coffee at 6:00 am and breakfast at 7:30. We had eggs, yogurt, cereal, and made our lunches. Soon after that, we headed to the Tree of Life's main office to get the lay of the land of work opportunity and what they provide to the community. Had a tour of the thrift store and their soup kitchen. They are well on their way to get them open soon! Barb, Melanie, Pam, and Molly stayed in the main office and cleaned and organized prom dresses that would be put in the thrift store. A lot of box sorting and pile making. Not to mention Molly screaming at a cat holding a dead bird in it's mouth outside the window. Howard, Gene, Connor, Lance, David, and Caleb went to a near by house to build a deck/ramp for a recently injured gentleman in the community. We went to his mother's house since he was going to be living there with injuring his knee, losing part of his leg and being in a wheelchair. We made a lot of pro

Good Evening people!!!! This is Molly, Pam, and Gene bringing you our day 2 recap from Mission, South Dakota!!!  We started our morning bright and early with breakfast again at 7:30am with FANTASTIC scrambled eggs (by Gene). The boys played some morning hacky sack before heading off to our work sites just a short drive away. Our groups split up once again after Linda (our supervisor at Tree of Life Ministries) gave us our work choices for the day. The girls (Pam, Molly, Barb, and Melanie) once again were finishing up de-cluttering, cleaning, and organizing their main office/storage room, and the boys were continuing their project of working of the ramp from yesterday. The girls were happy to finish cleaning out the storage room and the ministries 2 racks of prom dresses and 2 racks of suits were able to have a new place to be stored and saved. The boys were thankful that the weather had backed off from hot and humid to something that was much more comfortable to work in outside! They f
