On June 17, 2006, a small group from Morning Star Baptist Church traveled to
Kingsland, Texas to help Brother Mike and Sister Cindy Lancaster build a
house. The Lancasters have been serving as Missionaries in Mexico for the
past 20 years. Their desire is to have a home where they can retire
and also a home base to use during their furloughs. We praise the Lord
that the group was able to accomplish the goal to help get the house in the dry.
During our stay in Kingsland, Brother E.J. Smith, Jackie Smith, Jesús Bolivar, and
Jimmy Humphries stayed in a small cabin near the worksite. Eddie and
Shannon Fowler and Tommy and Myra Smith stayed in a nearby hotel. Due to
the extreme heat, the men worked each day from daybreak until lunch, then worked
from around 6 pm until dark. One day, thanks to a cloud cover, they were
able to work all day.
Shannon and Myra shopped for groceries and prepared meals for the group each day.
Our group returned safely to Pacolet on June 24.
