That is great! I LOVE hearing about other wood ministries!

I have 2 Christian camps that I help cut fire wood for. one near Johnson City TN that operates 4 OWB. They run thru a lot of wood. Another Camp in Wears Valley, near Townsend TN that mostly burns campfire wood. Will be cutting and splitting at the wears valley location April 28 if anyone is interested.

Man, I wish ours was this big. We started about 7 years ago, but my wife and I do probably 90% of it by ourselves. Its hard to find people who want to help except for these occasional work days.

That is a nice operation you have going on there. Skidsteer, indoor splitting, you can split rain or shine. That is an amazing amount of wood being processed for people in need.

I am only a small part. It works well due to a small core group of men and women. Assisting them are many volunteers and groups. Our Sheriff provides inmates for labor; civic groups provide equipment; churches provide meals, workers and money; businesses provide equipment, goods and services; local business man furnishes the woodlot; the Town provides roll off services; local Food Bank determines the recipients; tree services provide logs; individuals provide trees; and many cut, split and deliver wood. It works well because the whole community benefits not just the recipients.

For any readers in the MN WI area:

I can’t make the link work (my lack of tech skill) but this is in the chainsaw forum. Western edge of WI. Great group, great equipment and organization.

Are you related to @James Miller .

OP, what a great thing you have going on, sure wish I was closer. I'd like to find something like this near me, or to help organize it.
May God continue to bless you and all those you are serving through this ministry, to God be the glory .

Not that I know of? But since my mom was a Miller and her mom was a Miller, (nope, not from WV) who knows whom I'm related to?

Not to mention there are three of us within 20 miles of East Freedom who share the same name, with no relation to each other. Can be confusing at the bank, etc.

Calling for 78 and pleasant on Saturday!

That's funny, didn't figure you were, but funnier things have happened.
I'm still waiting to meet one of my brothers some day, I was adopted so you never know right .
Sounds like a heat wave, they were calling for 70 here on Friday, then they went down to 60 last night. As long as the sun is shining I don't care about the temp.

Hey everyone, can I get a head count of who all is coming to the Wood Ministry's wood cutting day this Saturday? Also let me know where you're coming from. Thank you.
