Hello, you’re reading Isaac’s Inventory. I spent the first half of the month in maintenance with Mike. I got more practice with the excavator and even loaded a whole container of scrap with it! I also helped him work on one of the tractors, which is finally working right again. I spent the latter half with Doug in the autobody shop. We taped off and sprayed a quarter panel of a Ford Ranger for someone at PGCC. Next up was the Smithmobile, a 2000 7.3 Excursion, which had rust clean through the rockers. We spent the first few days drilling out the spot welds on the rockers, grinding out the rest underneath, and prepping the metal to have the new pieces welded on. We then started getting the new rockers fit correctly. We were then interrupted by the Mexico trip, which will be detailed in my next newsletter. As of April 24th, we’re still working on the Excursion; more on that in the next newsletter, also.
CMTS held a food fest fundraiser this month. There was food from Mexico, the Dominican Republic, India, and more! There were other ministries that CMTS has worked with, such as Independent Church in India, This Little Light Ministries, and others. The event was a massive success. It raised $31,000, which smashed our goal! In spiritual and physical preparation for the Mexico trip, us Equip guys fasted for a few days. It was not conducive for bulking, but it did help us to deny the flesh.
We began our Life of Christ class with Justin this month. We spent this month studying the Kingdom. I learned that the word is both a verb and a noun. The Kingdom is not only all that God is King over, but the action of Him reigning. We finished our study of Experiencing God. Our last couple of classes were on the Body of Christ, how we’re supposed to function in it, and how we are to treat each other. We also started studying One Race One Blood this month, a book that teaches us about the spread of racism due to Darwinism, how we are all one race, one blood, and how we can battle racism in the church and the world.
“But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren.” – Luke 22:32
