'God Squad' paints the town with good works
For the second year in a row, the Sellersburg UMC's youth group, "God Squad," has ministered to the community by painting a house for a less fortunate couple. Their most recent project took them to the home of Bobby and Willetta Chappell, a house that had not been painted in many years. The Chappells have not been in good health for some years and this has made it difficult to make the many repairs needed on their home.
October 12 at 9 a.m. teens, parents and other volunteers with paintbrushes in hand, surrounded the house, started the day with prayer and soon the house was consumed with many helping hands.
God Squad takes the church's vision statement ("across the street and around the world with the good news of Jesus Christ") to heart and looks for "good works" regularly in their own backyard.
