Cleaning Assignment

Our ward as the assignment this year to clean the church every Saturday.  Our turn arrived the last Saturday of February.  I reminded everyone that we would all be going together and do our part.  A couple of weeks before nobody showed up.  I told the kids that if everyone pitched in we would be done early and could enjoy the rest of the day.

Surprise every family showed up and quickly got to work.  The kids paired up with their friends and Dave & I paired up with some of the younger kids.  Everyone vacuumed, polished, scrubbed, encouraged, and even joked about the jobs left to do.


What's left?
We finished much quicker than I imagined.  35 minutes to be exact and before the drudgery could set in.

Dave had a surprise for the kids for not complaining and working together.

Yummy Donuts...
A quick stop to wash the van and then it was time for Daylight Donuts.  They were quickly devoured and enjoyed by all.

We now have another month before we have the assignment again.  How lucky we are to be able to give service and have fun at the same time.
