Today we painted, a lot. I painted, he painted, she painted. They painted, we all painted, long day, phew! It was fun. Most of the first coat we had done yesterday, pretty much everything down low. So we had to paint the higher parts with the first coat and the lower parts with a second. The lower part we got done, the higher part still needs work. We also started painting a second color onto the cement.
The mosaic on the communion table had fallen apart since January. The tiles had come off, and the table had received water damage. So, three women worked all day on restoring it. They sanded it down, scraped the old grout off, restained the wood, put the tiles back into a mosaic and glued them down--when they can they will put a coating on top of the tiles to seal them further. This is the table before they worked on it:
The group doing basketball had more kids today--15 to 20. Yesterday they had around 8.P.S. I'm sorry I didn't include pictures yesterday--we didn't take pictures and my computer wouldn't load things from other peoples' cameras.
