Update from Our Saviour's Lutheran Church
Douglas Ministry

Then we traveled back to Douglas to begin work on the wall for the sidewalk and to finish the paint inside of the church. It was hot, but with everyone pitching in we got a lot accomplished! We ask for your prayers as they say tomorrow will be extremely hot and we are doing hard manual labor.
