Quonset—used for a prefabricated shelter having a semicircular arching roof of corrugated metal. Quonset huts were used during World War II for barracks, latrines, offices, etc. On the SIFAT campus, we were using ours as a large storage shed.
During training week, the counselors helped convert the Quonset hut into an awesome place of worship. Here are a few of the "before" pictures--the counselors found many interesting items.
Leslie didn't want to leave school for the summer, but we convinced her! She was glad she could catch up on some reading. Addison and Nate tried to find some new activities to share with students during free time!
Everyone had to get his (and her) hands dirty. While Katie worked on taking apart some old restaurant booths, the boys were, uhm, working?
For those students and chaperones who have worshiped in our storage shed, most count it as one of their favorite times during Learn & Serve.
Sure, the acoustics aren’t amazing, but every night, we get to look out across the pasture and above the tree line for a unique sunset. Some nights are hotter than others, and we're always trying to keep the bugs away, but our storage shed is certainly now a worship center. We get to praise our Creator, while He gives us something to enjoy. Talk about a “God-moment”!
