Quincy's Work

     My work has a lot of different meanings...I'm a gardner, apple picker, trash/compost man, bike repair man, furniture mover & soon to be a carpenter.   Once the winter is hear I will be assisting in finishing what a work & witness team from Ohio started.  There are  some apartments for guests & missionaries that are in the rough-in stage that need to be finished before Spring. Since it does snow hear in Switzerland I will also be snow plowing/shoveling when the snow falls.

     There is much to do hear on campus & not possible for only one person.  Uwa is the person I answer to.  Uwa is the person you go to if you have any question related to the campus.  He has been here for 30+ years.  I have a list of projects that Uwa has given me to do but he has told me to work at my own pace.  Of course he tells me not to work too hard, so i'm to take two coffee breaks during the day with the faculty-staff-students...i'm not complaining!  Me being here has taken the load off Uwa & allows ALL the things that need attention to be taken care of.  It has been hard work but very rewarding.  Thank you all for your prayers & support.

     I've put some pictures of my projects on the link to the left that says Q projects.  Make sure and read the discriptions below the pictures.

1 - Quincy,
Monday morning, nice to see what you've been doing. Looks to me like you've picked a ton of weeds. Hopefully you have some work gloves. Loved the fire pit. You've always liked that kind of thing, so other will benefit from your love of campfires.

Have a great day. Love ya,

4 - I ran into a guy at Salem First Church of the Nazarene here in Oregon that knows Uwa and was telling me about him this past Sunday. Small world!

How are things going for you and Ashley this week? What's the weather like in Büsingen now? We're getting closer every day to reaching our fundraising goal so continue to pray that we get all our funds in soon.

Bless you guys,

Uwa said "we have to make ready the apartment for volunteers for the regional office...they have 3 kids. i asked if it was the Potters & he said he thought so. well good news...your apartment is right above us...in fact i moved some furniture in there today. i'll take some pics soon so that you can see your place. it will be a nice apartment. the fundraising will work itself out if you are to be here. do you have the passports for your children? talk to you soon Ben.
