Greetings,

Another great, but hot day down at Johns Island. We have set a new record for the number of houses repaired in one session. We have completed(or near completion) of all of the original houses and all of the back-ups. The groups have all worked extremely hard and have done incredible work.

We had a wonderful supper tonight and had a few surprise visitors for dinner - Father Fletcher came to pick up Mike and had dinner with us as well as Will Moore and his new bride. It was great to see all of them.

Posted are pictures from the site that Beaumont, Winston, and I are working on. We have been working around the family trying to prepare for the funeral of the homeowners brother. He passed away on Wednesday morning and there have been many visitors to share their condolences. These visitors all commented on how great of a job we were doing and how much they appreciate us repairing Ms. Lowery's house.

After dinner Winston and Austin created a very popular game - a combination of ping pong and tennis played on the gym floor. The older kids hijack the ping pong table, so Austin and Winston got creative. It was neat to see some of the older kids come in and ask to play. I think this new game will be a new Homeworks tradition. Austin and Winston have already planned a tournament for later this week. It is really quite fun.

One more full day of work tomorrow and hopefully a few hours on Saturday and then we will celebrate with our homeowners at a special thanksgiving meal on Saturday night.

Thanks for your prayers,

God's Peace,

Brandon
