Mrs. B, as I will call her, was blessed this summer with a new porch and some painting work through our Group Workcamp. The week was a very special experience for her and her family members. In particular, her sweet little granddaughter became special friends with the older team of teenagers who worked on her grandma's house. We'll call her Jenny. Jenny has epilepsy. And when she has seizures, she falls.
Recently, Jenny was out on the newly built porch that the workcampers had constructed for Mrs. B. The old porch did not have railing and stood nearly two feet over an area with plenty of concrete and other hard objects. While Jenny was on the porch, she had another seizure and grandma was not within reach. When Jenny started to go down, the newly installed railing caught her fall. God's blessings sometimes come in small doses... like a railing on a porch constructed by a group of teens that had no idea what they were doing. But those small doses have powerful effects. Thanks be to God.

We never know if our actions today will be someones blessing tomorrow. Well done thy good and faithful servants!:)
