Team members and other volunteers from the ORBEC community gathered for a workday to spruce up Collinswood for our upcoming walks. We trimmed hedges, cleaned up all the buildings and grounds, made sure everything was functional including water, heating & air and more. The guys went to work installing temporary walls in the pavilion in order to stay warm and also to create a conference room, chapel, and snack room. Things are looking great and there is an excitement in the air for Walks 19 and 20. We can’t wait to see what God is going to do in the lives of His faithful servants.
