I won't condone what this sphincter group is doing because I don't know exactly what it is.
Although, in the family corps, I was in 5-6th grade, and we had play days after school at times and we had work days at other times. Of course, at that age you don't really enjoy the work days that much, but doing it with friends wasn't so bad and as an adult I can see how it helped cultivate a strong work ethic. Plus I learned the proper way to do certain things. At Indiana it really wasn't that bad, nice surroundings, diverse jobs to do and learn from etc.. What would have been more helpful and what would be more helpful in this "minister's" case is to do things for other people other than the MOG. It would be better to not only cultivate a strong work ethic but also helping those that need help. Helping a fellow fellowshipper is one thing, but it doesn't always carry through to helping people that really need it which also usually brings with it the creative thinking that comes along with helping those that don't know how to help themselves already.
Working with your hands is good for a young person. It helps coordination, builds respect, builds confidence, brings pride in what you do, and many other things. Thats the way I see it.

Sounds like its an opportunity to get all the chores that you are too lazy to do yourself done and take some suckers money to get them done.
I have a hard time believing anyone can actually be stupid enough to buys into this BS...
but if any of you do you're more than welcome to come over and clean my house next weekend ---PLUS I'll give you a deal and only charge you $30.00
