Rockford Urban Ministries Work Experience

A six month furlough starting December 20 created a whole lot of open-ended time. I no longer had 500 kids to wake me up each morning and keep me going all day long. What to do? I searched for volunteer work and ended up with Rockford Urban Ministries. Stan Campbell asked that I serve as the winter workcamp coordinator. I gladly stepped in and helped bridge the gap between last summer and this summer's college work camp leaders. At first I had no clue how this work camp project worked. It all came together this past week with our first work crew from Nebraska. Thanks Stan! You provided me with a most satisfying and meaningful experience during a horrific, most confining and boring winter!
