Thankful Thursday


I am thankful today that it is the longest day of the year. The sun is shining and no rain so far. Also, today I am thankful for 20-somethings who love the Lord and are working their hearts out to create a coffee house on the Purdue University campus. I see them hanging drywall, taping, and mudding. I see hands at work sanding down chairs to be stained. I see paint on faces and clothes. I see men who are taking time out of their lives to put brick on the wall, men who are putting in electrical wiring, men who are teaching younger men to cut lumber, nail that lumber on the wall, and just being there to help in any way needed. This coffee house is named GREY HOUSE COFFEE & SUPPLY and is to open July 7, 2008.
