Moving--Days Two and Three

We have had the blessed assistance of Catholic HEART Workcamp for the week. There are over 350 volunteers--high school kids and adults--staying in Nashville, and we've had about 60 volunteers helping us move. There's one group at our old campus, loading Uhauls, and there's another group at the new location, ready to unload each truck and place the desks, books, computers, etc. in the proper rooms. Not only do they unload, but they also organize, clean and sort. On Tuesday, I had to ask a group to move books that had already been shelved in one area to another area. They did the job quickly and with a good Grace. Yesterday, a small group stripped wallpaper in two offices. Today they will have another office to do. Yet another group has designated themselves to paint two places outside, and they are really excited about it! It is a joy to work with this special group of young people. I have missed working with high school kids. They have made my week special.

We are throwing them a picnic today, with a grill and watermelon. I am bringing my guitar, my voice, and three watermelons.

The phones are coming today, and we hope to move IT infrastructure tomorrow.

Blessings!
