Back in December I was asking people to pray for a plumber. Well, Tallgrass Spiritual Retreat Center got EIGHT men willing and capable of doing the plumbing work! They were all members of Volunteers in Ministry, an organization of the Kansas West Conference of the United Methodist Church. The team was headed up by Marlin Brown from Wichita, Kansas. They came from eight different places around the area in late January to replace three shower faucets, a lavatory faucet and a kitchen sink faucet. It was not a simple job. They had to cut into the drywall in the walls behind all three showers to do the replacements and then patch all the holes they had cut. One replacement involved removing and replacing ceramic tiles. Marlin estimated four days to complete the job. They were done much sooner than that and did a wonderful job! There were a number of other smaller jobs around the retreat center they completed, as well, including caulking a window, repairing a screen door, replacing siding on the Bunkhouse, and more. Thanks to these good men for their servant hearts. Plus . . . they tell me they'll come back and bring their wives and do even more work for the center! WooHoo!
