Yeah, it's a spin off title from the last post in the hopes of relating the two blogs.
Was it successful? I guess we shall see.
The manly gathering on Saturday May 8th at 8:30am started out with tasty eats and the prospects of great weather. The sky was overcast with a generous layer of cloud cover keeping the hot sun at bay and that nasty wind that plagued us all earlier in the week was barely a breeze. All signs for a perfect day doing little projects around the church were pointing to YES.
After filling up with breakfast burritos to get our engines moving, the first task at hand was to move construction supplies from the upstairs room to either two eagerly awaiting white trucks or the garbage bin. From the trucks it was off to a storage facility, where we were greeted with a spacious unit that became the new home for these various supplies.
From the storage unit it was back to the church for some internal operations and no, I do not mean the removal of appendices and such. Had to clear that up, cause I knew you were thinking it. The operations included various tasks like arranging of chairs, adjusting sound equipment, vacuuming the floor and trash removal to name a few.
Once the internal duties where accomplished it was on to the external extravaganzas. If you were thinking weed pulling. You would be thinking right! I mean what other extravaganzas could there be? The rest of the hour was allotted to tearing, pulling, yanking and ripping those vermin out of their life sustaining earth. Some call it cruel. Some call it horrific, but we like to call it weeding.
Other than a scratch here and a minor bruise there no injuries where had and the event was a success!
Thank you to all you guys who showed up and lent a manly helping hand.
Ok, maybe not the best title in the world, but hey it got your attention right?
Let me explain.
This coming Saturday, May 8th to be exact, starting at 8:30am, the Men of New Covenant Church are getn' together at the Church for some breakfast, fellowship and to lend a helping hand on some church projects. Shouldn't be too hard of work. Just the typical ol' barn raisin', trench diggin', pig wrestlin', put a big ol' smile on your face type of work.
Ok, ok, maybe not that extreme of work but more to the tune of little projects here and there that with the help of a group of guys like yourself, excuse me if you are a lady reading this, can get accomplished in no time flat.
So, get your work clothes ready, invite your pals, plan a car-pool and give Craig Vineyard a call and let him know you are coming on down. Or if you are not sure until the morning of, just come on down anyways and surprise us all. Either way it will be a great way to get the blood flowing and the weekend started.
