Tool Men and Women







Those handsome Tool Men are Dave and Lyn from the Church on the Hill, Lenox, MA along with Chris, standing in the Back Bay Mission tool shed which holds an incredible amount of hammers, power tools, saws, you-name-it, whatever is needed for house repair and construction. Also shown are buckets full of cleaning supplies which have were distributed as the first-line defense after the storm hit.

Also pictured is Natalie (pastor of Church on the Hill, UCC), sanding away on the ceiling of the house we were working on, and then the Tool Women (Becca, Emily, "Auntie Em" (the other Emily), Danielle and Sandy (all from Lenox), on the front porch of the house. (Photo by Anne, who also was covered with wall-board compound.) Few of us had done this kind of work before, but Dave and Auntie Em were old pros at this and soon had us sanding and slattering away with gusto.

A tough way to earn your way to heaven, you both will bear consideration. Limbo or worse will be my permanent home, beyond redemption an old sinner am I. Be safe, and well.

Hi Chris and Anne,
Glad you are hard at work at Back Bay. Sounds like your trip is going fine now. Just want you to know we are thinking about you and keeping you in our prayers. Fun to see the pictures and to have a sense of your happenings. It is the 27th today and trying to snow here. We are working on our house.
