Psalm 8:8 - God, brilliant Lord. Your name echoes around the world. (MSG)

After three long, strenuous days of renovation and repairs, the team deserved a day off. Initially, the plan was to just visit Pearl Harbor; however someone mentioned that we should take a tour of the North Shore. My goodness! What an incredible God we serve. The above verse was referenced during our morning devotions, and it adequately describes how we all felt after seeing the wonderful sights. Our day concluded with a fabulous meal at a local restaurant in Waikiki.

With one and one-half days to go before the team returns to the mainland, the completion of the project is well in hand. By the end of today, the exterior siding and painting will be completed, all electrical and plumbing matters will be finalized, and the kitchen cabinetry will be installed.

We will leave the island with the satisfaction of knowing that Pastors Greg and Joan Hood will be able to move into a freshly renovated residence.
