Tampa Update

Things are going well in Tampa, but the weather short circuited our work today. It was raining so hard that they made us quit and come back to our home, Eckerd College. Our group is working at Beth El, a migrant farmworker ministry. They have been at it for about 15 years now. The center has a school, classes for adults, food pantry, church, and several other things. We have been working on some roofing, building, painting, and clearing land so that they can plant a garden.
Yesterday we did much of the same work at Beth El and then had a cookout dinner down at the beach with all the other groups. It was a fun night. Then, we had a late night Dairy Queen, McDonald's, and Wal Mart run. Your kids know how to spend money they don't need to!!
I'll post pictures soon. Pray that the weather will hold off enough for us to work longer tomorrow.

Cheers,
Casey
