Last Day on the Job
Good morning friends! I do have to say, I am looking forward to today very much! A few of us were down for the count with a little Montezuma’s revenge yesterday … we actually don’t know what caused it, but everyone is feeling much better today. By the afternoon, I was able to make it out to the work site to give some moral support and do some documentation with the cameras. It was amazing, after having only missed a handful of hours at the site, how much had been completed. The team was a well-oiled machine working together to mix cement and pour it into the forms to finish up the walls of the home so that we can do the roof today. Furthermore, the team was constantly praying with one another that God may use us even in our weakest moments. As many became visibly tired, other took notice and stopped to pray with each other.
I am very excited for the dedication portion of this afternoon where we will be officially dedicating the home. It is amazing that over their existing home is written “dios es amor” (even in the outhouse) and I am sure that they will continue to enscribe those words into their home and onto their hearts as they continually pour out love on each other and in the community.
I have a few more pictures to share, however, the connection is pretty slow here. I will try and load a few if possible. If not now, perhaps in the airport. Either way, I will ensure that a slide show of some of the highlights of the week gets uploaded once we get home!
