The youth have been doing mission projects each Thursday in July and the whole Allison family has been right there in the middle of everything. We went to East St. Louis to work at the Christian Activity Center on July 2nd. We cleaned the building, organized school supplies, read books to the children, played kickball, and tons of other stuff. Landon keeps asking when we are going back to the "Big Arch" because you can see the "Big Arch" from the CAC building. :) Then, the next project we did was helped clean out the old part of our church building that is getting torn down next week. We had to move everything from the old part to a storage building across the street.

Then, today's project was working at a homeless shelter here in town cleaning the property, organizing the library, and talking with the residents. One of the projects was moving about 200 bricks from the back of the property to the dumpster at the front. We believe that Landon is learning what it means to be a hard worker and helping others in need. Our prayer is that he sees the needs of others around him and he finds ways to help them. I was so proud of him!
Landon is showing off his one of many bricks that he carried! Check out Brady in the background playing with his pacifier in his hands! Too cute!
Strong boy :)
Guess who is 5 months old today?!?
