"We're going to make it happen." John, a lawn care specialist, who has volunteered to help us clean up the backyard at the youth building said that to me this week. I realized when he said that, that he was among many in the last couple of months who had made similar statements. "We are in it together," "Our goals are..." There are so many people who have adopted this project for the good of the community. I am overwhelmed by the support and volunteers that are making this dream a reality.
I mentioned a couple of months ago that there was a couple that had started helping at First Indian a few months ago, John and Shirley Wiley. John has done a significant portion of the work on this project, and I am ever grateful for his partnership. John's son, Brian, has also become very involved and has noted several times that, "we are in this together." Wahoo, a man who attends First Indian church has been around on a regular basis to assist in various projects. Wahoo is a leader in the community who will be hosting an AA class in the youth building on a weekly basis once the building is complete. Cesario, the father of some children and teens that attend the church is offering guidance in our garden planting effort.
I am blessed by the response of wonderful people who have chosen to become partners in this effort.
