Paint, sweat and cheers
PHOTO PROVIDED BY MARK YEAKLEY
Some of the 226 volunteers from four states who participated in the Wichita Workcamp scrape and repaint a Kansas home. The Northside Church of Christ hosted the service camp.

Summertime brings picnics, triple-digit temperatures ... and hundreds of teens from Churches of Christ spreading joy through hard work and sweat. 

Across the nation, many church youth groups take time away from dips in the swimming pool and late-night devotionals to show God’s love during work camps. 

Young people painted homes and performed other manual labor during recent work camps in places such as Decatur, Ala.; Memphis, Tenn.; Parkersburg, W.Va.; San Antonio; and Wichita, Kan.
