We were asked to share our testimonies during the church service today. Deric shared with the congregation, that had just been led to become a nondenominational church, that he admired the church for standing firm on the word of God. Then two of the youth shared their testimonies.

Sunday afternoon we drove to Port Charlotte to assist a Veteran and his family with some disaster repairs. We helped with a lot of cleanup, but we really enjoyed hearing their story and how God works things out for them as they pick up the pieces and move on.

Our next project was to pack 75 bags to be given to the homeless people in the community in hopes we can pray with them and share the gospel.

The second Demo Crew worked on a house where the floors had caved in after 56 inches of rain had filled the house from Hurricane Ian. They had to run ply wood on the floor boards in the area so that they could tear down the walls and removed insulation. They really worked as a team to get this job accomplished.

The car wash was a huge success. Not only did we wash about 45 cars from the community but we were able to pray with them as well.

After a great meal provided by one of the church members, we enjoyed an ice cream social with several of the church members.

After a full day at the beach we went to a bowling alley where we played laser tag and had fun playing games at the arcade, BUT the coolest thing was a robot that served you pizza at your table.
