Wood Ministry work day 2nd addition

[John Lawler]

Hello there all my fellow chainsaw firewood cutting fanatics! Last year we had a firewood cutting day for our Wood Ministry here in southcentral Pa and it was a FANTASTIC day!! We had numerous guys from this page show up from literally all over to help our wood ministry cut firewood. Well, I am seeing if there are those of you who may be interested in doing this again. I was asked by a couple guys to do it again as they wanted to come again to help. So, let me know who is interested in doing this and if enough people are interested we can work on scheduling a day. As before we here will provide the tons of water as well as lunch and dinner if you all want to stay for dinner.

The attached pics are from last years work day!

So far I have narrowed it down to April 27th or May 11th if anyone is interested I would appreciate any input to which day works best for the majority.

I will try to attend either day. I am supposed to be off on sundays, so I end up working many saturdays.

Hey everyone. I am sorry I haven't kept everyone up to date about this wood cutting day. With the rain, some equipment repairs and had more than a few trees donated to the wood ministry that we had to get cut up and hauled back here Ive dropped the ball. With that said, I am having the wood cutting day on Saturday May 11th. There will be about 4 and 1/2 triaxles of wood here to cut. I will have them stacked in 3 separate piles and if we have 2 people cutting per each side of the piles we can have 12 people cutting at once. Last time we did this we had numerous people here from my church helping to cut, split and stack, but honestly I think it created a little chaos. So, this time it is just going to be you wood cutting crazies doing what you do best, cut firewood. I just want to make sure you guys get to cut because it is you who is donating your time to help this ministry so I want you to be able to cut as much and as long as you'd like. Depending on how long everyone is here my wife and I will provided all the water and drinks you want and we will provide lunch. If others stay longer or you can't come until the afternoon and cut to late afternoon or evening will also provide dinner. As far as what time this gets started, well that's up to you individually. I will be up by 7AM, sop you all come when it is convenient to you. Thank you all for your interest.

If anyone can make it please let me know, that way I can make sure I have what I need for water, drinks and the such. Also, so I can know what to expect for lunch/dinner. Thanks you all!​

Well, my woods been delivered today for this Saturday. 4 triaxles ready for any of you wood cutting crazies wanting to get some cutting in for a good cause.

Ok all you wood cutting enthusiasts, tomorrow is supposed to be AWESOME wood cutting weather. No rain, high of 65ish partially sunny/cloudy with slight breezes. I hope some of you can make it. It should be a good day for a GREAT cause. Last year we supplied free firewood to approximately 9 poor families completely for free, approximately 4 families for a SUBSTANTIAL discount like $30 for 1/2 cord. Some of our families are veterans and others have disabled family members. We have also given away a load here and there to those who stop and ask for a load. This year we anticipate even more families as I have had A LOT of facebook messages, texts and phone calls asking about our wood ministry. So, a BIG thank you to those who can make it here tomorrow to cut. See you tomorrow.
