Progress over Christmas break

January 19th, 2008

Over Christmas we were blessed to have a team come from Indiana to work on the school and on fixing up the dorms.  (If you would like to see the picture better, please double click on it and you can see a full-screen view.)

For those of you who stayed in the dorms in Santa Ana this past summer, you will appreciate the upgrade here!  These are the new stairs and dining room floor in the dorms.

The group was also able to do a lot of painting in the dorms as well, but I forgot to get pictures of that.  A special “Thank You” to Crossroads Community Church for their service and hard work!
