My hubby at work

The other day I was able to go to my husband's office and watch him finish up his work before we went off to our Pidal's to watch Lost. My husband does all the printing, folding, hole punching, laminating, shrink wrapping, and cutting that Grace Church, Grace School, and Masters Seminary needs. During the School year and various conferences Grace Church hosts, the work load can get pretty intense.

Here is a behind the scenes look at Grace Community Church during an average work week...


Here is my husband at his computer where various departments on the church campus will send him jobs that need to be printed in color or black and white. He sends them to the copier and then if they need to be folded, cut, hole punched or shrink wrapped he takes them to the finishing room next door. This is inside the finishing room. Today he was preparing to fold the Sunday bulletins for the various fellowship groups that meet around the campus, but the blue machine behind him is used for shrink wrapping CD's or books that he prints and are then sold to Grace Books International. Here he is folding one of the fellowship group's Sunday bulletins on the folding machines which are capable of folding bi-folds and tri-folds. Yes, folding machines! ... You didn't think he folded them all by hand did you? In actually it would take hours trying to fold by hand all the thousands of bulletins that are printed each week, so using the folding machine really speeds up the process.After the bulletins have all been folded he will 3 hole punch any of the bulletins that need three hole punching using a drill specially designed for hole punching, and then he delivers the bulletins to all the various fellowship group departments.

It might be a somewhat of a daunting task to do all these big print jobs each week, but my husband does a wonderful job. It's faithful servants like my husband who make our church run as smoothly as it does each week. I am so thankful for my husband's heart and his willingness to serve so faithfully. I am so proud to call him my husband and to be able to grow under his leadership as we serve the Lord together.
