We are on our way to breakfast, then straight to work. The whole team will be building together.
Here's a picture for some sweet thoughts.
Wow! The whole team went to River Run today. We set up four work crews and worked on four new homes! We ran out of wood and it's tough to find here. The Guatemalans actually cut it to order so we are hoping to have enough to finish the homes tomorrow. At 4:00 p.m. we all rallied at the new bridge for a "homeowners association sunshine visit". There are several youth on our team that did personal and group projects. Tied Together made blankets and Snoddy III collected soccer (football) equipment. They gave out the goodies to the families of the village where we are working.
It was a full day. Your kids are learning how to swing a hammer, how to level post, hang siding, and hopefully we'll do roofing lessons tomorrow along with concrete mixing, pouring, and smoothing. All in a good days work.
The ride home was interesting. It started raining and remember we move about in the bed of trucks. A tarp was the over head. They loved it!
All is safe. Showers are on going. Dinner in a few minutes. Devotionals and movie night.
7:00 a.m. comes early.
peace & God's blessings,
Lisa
