It has been a long time since we have posted details concerning all the activity taking place at MTE. God has been busy at work and it would be impossible to show you all He has accomplished......but here is a little!
What would we have done without all your help and support?!
We have had several groups come recently to help with things like clearing the grounds and planting grass, finishing trim in the lodge, completing the kitchen, laying tile in the entrance way, finishing the stone on the hearth and outside the main door.....Thank YOU!
Holly found a great fireplace and it is in the process of being put on the newly completed stone hearth.
She has also finished the stone patio outside of the bedrooms and has created a lovely waterfall to the side of the House of Joy....it sounds so incredible from the porch. We were in much need of extra parking space....load after load of mountain has been hauled away from above the lodge creating a great parking space for visitors.
It is amazing to see the vision given to Martin and Joy finally being completed.
This summer we finished all that needed to be done to be able to open in April of 2011.
Praise God......we can now start taking reservations.
These are the few things here and there that we would like to have done before then:
*Carpet needs to be put in the upstairs office which will now be used as a
play room/extra bedroom.
*A little trim needs to be put up here and there.
*We are in need of a few essentials in the kitchen. If you would like to donate any items please see the bottom of this post for a list of things we would like to have in place
when we open in April.
*Electricity needs to be rerun to the bunk house.
*Sealing the House of Joy-we hope to have this done before the snow sets in this winter.
We will be sending out a newsletter soon with our new brochure and a prayer card.
If we do not have your snail mail and you would like to receive a newsletter........ please contact us by email.
Thank you all for your help over the years!

Wow, you have been busy; such beauty! I'd love to be added to your mailing list, either e-mail or snail mail. Let me know what I need to do.

Great updates! Love the video of the things done recently at MTE! Can not wait to get back and spend some more time on His mountain.
