with MEN Meeting (Plumbing Work at Hope)

Hello Men of Hope, as you know we have a work day on Nov 7 at Hope Chapel. Since I was scheduled to begin plumbing classes on the same day, I’ve coordinated with Wes and there are some plumbing projects that we can use as the start of some of our training. If you are interested in joining me for the plumbing work, please contact me so I can gauge how many men will be helping me. Contact Glenn 512-662-4363.
