Building Community

There are so many ways to serve. All we need to do is open our eyes and hearts and God will provide.

We recently were given an opportunity to help an elderly couple in West Columbia. Roosevelt Glauston suffered through some strokes in the past few years which has weakened him and made it difficult for him to navigate steps. He has an electric wheelchair he can use once he is out of the house but it has been kept in the shed because there is no way for them to get it up the 4 steps that lead into their home.

We were introduced to the Glauston's and given an opportunity to help them and we ran with it. Pictured here are members of Radius who came to help Willimena (Pictured) and Roosevelt. We built the wheelchair ramp, repaired some siding and fixed their carport (Well done Nick!). (Professional photography and nail gunner was Steve Jewell - Wayne's brother. Thanks Steve!)

It was a blessing to touch their lives by just offering a hand. Keep your eyes and hearts open and help with the next Building Community Project.
