Ok so for awhile now Shaun, me and the rest of the interns have been working on a huge remodeling project in the basement of our youth center called The Underground. This has been a huge project with MANY hours spent down in the hot, smelly from paint fumes.. (and a few other things), and even at times wet basement. The whole thing has been a lot of fun even though I dont like the whole working thing all that much. But the thing that i hated the most was painting, I wasn't good at it, I didn't like having to pay attention to detail, and it was so boring. But I hate to admit that Shaun was right and I have kind of grown to like painting.
But anyways back to the point of Was all that time and effort worth it? I mean its not like I was being paid for these hours.... or was it?? I mean I wasnt being paid a dollar wage but in fact im being paid by seeing the the impact in the youth. Getting to use The Underground to minister and impact the lives of the youth I would say that I am more than willing to give up a couple hours of my "busy" day for that.
Even though it has been really stressful at times The Underground is drawing closer and closer to being done and being ready to use, and I can not wait to see all the time and effort that we have put in be seen and used in huge ways!
