as the crowds gather

Another full day here at ANBC... if you're not with us, you're missing out on some great fellowship and ministry together.

We were joined by our friends Rob & Irene VanAsperen from Jacksontown Baptist Church; Kyle Hughes from Providence Christian Church and the first wave of volunteers from Peterborough Free Methodist Church arrived by plane (the remainder of the team will arrive by van tomorrow morning).

The Speakers Cabin renovation is taking shape with lots of exciting changes, the Waban-Aki Book & Soda Shop is all ready for the Peterborough team to tackle and the yard clean-up has begun!

Speakers Cabin Renovation: Paul and John framing out the new bathroom door.

Zach built a new coat rack for the apartment.

Speakers Cabin Renovation: Dave and Brian got quite a bit of the drywall up today.

Work Week 2013... demo day!

Today was another fantastic day at ANBC. Our friends from Victory Baptist church were joined by a new friend from Devon Park Baptist Church here in Fredericton; Brian has been helping with the Speakers Cabin renovation.

Todd Hill joined us today to wire the tuck shop for that renovation and Todd Nielsen began work on the "coupla", a belfry to house our big brass camp bell!

We were joined tonight by NCEM General Director Albert Heal and his wife Barb as well as Len & Lorrayne Breen our Eastern Field Directors! The lodge is beginning to fill up! It's always exciting at ANBC during work week!

Cindy & Julie getting ready to tackle the speakers cabin!

Todd Nielsen is building us a belfry for our big brass camp bell!

The "coupla" is going to be pretty snazzy!

Our speakers cabin will be a housekeeping unit, Paul and Dave were busy with demo today.

Inside, outside!

 After beginning to work in the speakers cabin it became evident that there had been rodents living in the wall at some point in the past. So the renovation became much more comprehensive... but it's going to look amazing when they're all done.

Resident electrical wizard... Todd Hill!

Zack working on getting the big brass bell all shined up!

 Eve & Liz making the magic happen in the kitchen... keeping everyone all fed up!

So happy to have Brian join us from Devon Park Baptist.

We're certainly putting the ANBC truck through it's paces this week!
