Day Seven: Working at the Zarqa School, 7/16/11
Saturday was a work day at the school. Some of the men began the drop ceiling in the foyer area of the church. Others jack-hammered cement from the area that will eventually be paved. Painting was started on windows, doors and walls. We began staining desks that the previous team had stripped. The days are always hot, between 95 and 110 degrees. While there is little humidity, the sun really penetrates and we spend a lot of time outside. We had an evening service with the youth at the Zarqa church. A few from our team led in some songs as well as presenting a skit. There was a group from Korea who participated in the service as well. We played a game of "sharks" with the youth. Some of the "old men" from our team played basketball against some of the youth at the church. They held their own very well and had a lot of fun.
