GRACE ’15 I (Tuesday, 2/3/15)

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2015
WOW!!
What a full day of ministry; what a full day of blessings.
Today began a bit later; we had breakfast at 6, worship at 7.  The morning time in the upper room is VERY INSPIRATIONAL.  Today Tico Vargas brought the message from God’s Word.  A wonderful man; a great message. The MEDICAL TEAM went to Noah’s Village (pronounced no-a).  That place is quite special to many of us.  The Doc plus attended to approximately 340 hurting individuals.
The BUILDING TEAM was terrific.  We finished the day 1-door-hung shy of 20 completed houses.  We could not hang that door because the cement was too wet.
After crossing our infamous bridge we met the Medical Team at Noah’s village.  100 families came through as we distributed food and clothes. WOW!
We returned to the Mission House at 8:30, twelve hours after leaving.  Tired?  What do you think?  Blessed? What do you think?
Tomorrow we return to the bridge one more time to dedicate the houses and say good-bye to the families we have gotten to know over the past few days.  More blessings in store.
Thanks for reading.  Thanks for praying.

GRACE ’15 I (Monday, 2/2/15)

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2015
Another full day of ministry.   Another day of being blessed when we thought we were going to be the blessers.
Our day began with breakfast at 5:45, followed by worship at 6:30.  Carla Mast led in worship; great job as always.  Baylee and Mikayla sang a special; blessed everyone.  Pastor Bob bought a devotional challenge; nuff said.
The medical team drove to the coast and worked out of a ‘BARNYARD”, complete with chickens, pigs, ducks, geese, dogs… I think you get the idea.  May not have passed codes in the USA, but met the needs of 380 patients.
The Building crew crossed their bridge and build more houses. We currently have 18 under construction.  Close to the 20 that will be completed by tomorrow quitting time.
After supper at the Mission House the TEAM sorted clothes which will be distributed to 100 families in Noah’s (pronounced “no –a”) village tomorrow.  Another group was preparing dedication baskets which be given out Wednesday when we dedicate and present the houses.
Thanks for reading.  Thanks for praying.  Keep praying.
