Definition: Mudder – one who uses mud (drywall joint sealing compound) to seal joints in drywall so as to create a seamless appearance in a wall or ceiling.

Examples of “mudders” (but not necessarily “expert”) are Covenant members Dave Arnett, Dick Cannon, Hugh Comfort, Nes Cumings, Jim Haraway, Don Schwartz, Frank Szofran, Stuart Turner, and Dave Weible.

Those nine made up Covenant’s third mission team to the Gulfport, Mississippi area to help with Katrina recovery efforts. All those listed above had been on at least one trip to the Gulf Coast except rookie Dave Weible.
