MMAP, Oct. 2012, CEF, Windsor Mill, MD

Our first week here on the MMAP project in Maryland is complete already!!

MMAP asks the host to provide space, including electric, water and sewer, for the RVs.  Since we are in their parking lot, a temporary set up had to be made.  When we arrived, two of the guys had already installed the temporary sewer system in the parking lot, but some adjustments were needed to make it user friendly, using a macerator.

Previously, the basement at the Child Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) building had some water damage.  Although the cause has been repaired, the block walls still had some work to be done on them.  

We ladies sanded and repainted with drylock sealer to make it waterproof prior to the guys hanging plastic and installing 1x2  rib boards for hanging sheetrock.

Delores and I also got to play with some of the big toys!

The room has, up to this time, been unfinished.  Our project is to get it as user-friendly as possible!  The primary purpose will be for training.

Paul also removed plumbing in the bathroom in order to put up sheetrock in that room

as well as scraping and preparing the floor and installed new tile.

One full wall has sheetrock and a layer of “mud”.

The ladies also made curtain valances for the windows, and this week are working on full panels of curtains to cover a storage area.

Two,  Marie and Lois, who have both worked with CEF in the past, went with the director to help with a school on their first meeting.  Prayers were  answered this week for more workers at this school!

The time has gone by fast, and tomorrow is our half way day!!  We are continuing this week with making the curtains and the finishing the walls!
