This week we have gone BIG!
We’ve had the most people here so far.
We shipped 3 containers. One went to Convoy of Hope and two were sent to South Africa.
The team from Village Church, Burbank finished up the rock gardens in RV sites.
And…tan-tan-ta-daaa…on Thursday the teams broke this summer’s record by processing the most peaches. They did approximately 190,000 lbs. of fresh fruit in a day. That’s 190 bins of fresh fruit!
You say WHAT!!! We say, WE’RE BLOWN AWAY!!!
This week we also heard the same question asked over and over again. Why are you doing this? And the answer is simple. Because love looks like something and this is how love looked this week.
