SWEAT Teamers,
We have the exciting opportunity to help Doug Alcala reach out to the people of Cement City. Doug lives in the Oasis apartment complex, and we will be working on the Oasis apartments alongside the people who live there. Work includes painting, landscaping, and clean-up. This is a great opportunity for us to reach the most broken area of Denton. Here is a map for the Oasis Apartments.
We also are partnering with Cornerstone Ministry to help Joseph, a single dad with one daughter, move into a trailer. Cornerstone is a singles ministry of Denton Bible Church. This is a good fit, because Joseph is raising his daughter alone. Here is a map to his current apartment here in Denton.
As always, please come to the SWEAT Team office at 8:45am on Saturday to help out. Hope to see you there!
Dave

New Projects for 6/20/09
SWEAT Teamers,
This Saturday we are going to help Nick Stephens' home on Campbell St. Nick is the guy who has a ministry in Dallas that ministers to crack addicts and homeless people and will eventually have a church on Malcolm X Blvd. We hope to put a door in, install a sink, and put in cement. For this, we'll be meeting at the SWEAT Team office and going over together, but just in case you need it, here's the Google map to that location.
We also have Angie Wholley from Friends of the Family speaking to us about women abused in the home; she will speak at 9:00am sharp. Please arrive before that to show respect to her.
Ed Jones wanted me to pass along some info to everyone about a mission trip to East Tennessee in October. We'll be attending an Apple Festival (should be fun!) and then helping Charlie and Earlene Cornett with their ministry. We'll be working in his warehouse, repairing homes, etc. The start date is firm, Oct 1st. I don't have a duration yet.
I'm trying to get a feel for how many we might bring, so if you're interested, please contact Ed at ejones@dentonbible.org. Oh yeah, the first weekend, we'll be sleeping in the basement of the church. After that, we'll have rooms at the local motel.
Bless you for all you do for His church.

Latest for the SWEAT Team!
Ladies and Gentlemen,
This week, we will be helping Karin (sp?) with a little bit of maintenance on her home in Oak Point, TX. We will have evangelism teams working in the area and need one person who can help with that. Here's a link to the Google map to Karin's house:

Also, we're helping a lady here in Denton who has had several heart attacks and needs help with tree work and roof repair at her house. This lady has expressed interest in attending Denton Bible and could use some help and encouragement. Here's a link to the Google map to her house:
