Flower City Work Camp 2019

This was the third year I was involved in Flower City Work Camp (FCWC) as an adult leader on a Sidewalk Club.  This was Marie’s second year on a worksite and Tab’s first year on a worksite.

Marie worked on a house in Rochester, laying kitchen tile flooring and doing a lot of painting.  Tabitha went to multiple Heritage Christian Home locations doing work on their facilities.  She mucked horse stalls, spread mulch, and even went dumpster diving (I still need to get that photo from our Youth Pastor.)

Over 700 students and 1000 adults work within this week-long ministry.

We had locations on Council Street and Woodward Street.

Each morning and evening the students met in the sanctuary for worship, and teaching.  This years theme was “The Greatest” meaning the greatest of these is love.

Tabby had her birthday at camp.  This was the last time I was going to see her as a 12-year old.

Ta Da!  Here she is 13!

By far the best part of Sidewalk Club is telling children how much Jesus loves them and how He has a special plan for their lives.  At least three kids made the decision to follow Christ from our club sites this week.
