What did they do at Midwest Mission?
Brad Walton, Operations Manager said, “The list is long. They come in and talk to us about our needs and what we hope they can accomplish. Then, because of their focus and strong work ethic, they add to the list as they look around campus and notice other projects they can tackle. They do so much in that concentrated time, and it is apparent and appreciated. We can’t get it all done on our own. We look forward to having them again next year. This year’s team was outstanding!”
Lynn and George Dimock, from Tennessee were part of the team. Lynn said, of the NOMADS, “It is one thing to talk about helping others, but something else to actually do it. NOMADS don’t just talk, they do, and that is what is important."
Indeed, they do work. Brad said all the projects they worked on were important, big and small. “I was also impressed that there are not ‘men’s jobs vs. women’s jobs.’ Everyone steps up, no matter the project!”
As Midwest Mission continues to expand there is always work to be done. George said “They are running out of storage space. To help with that they are getting some old shipping containers to put at the end of the warehouse, but they had no door for their forklift. So we built a door opening and rewired the building. In two more weeks, the overhead door contractor will install the door.”
