As I type this, we do not have an internet connection at the mission house and haven’t had one since we returned from our day of ministry.  As a matter of fact, we returned home to no electricity and basically had to eat supper in the dark.  By the way, I have a call into Al about this lack of connection issue.

Good day!  This team is comprised of 44 members and 21 of them are first timers on a GRACE trip.  Since two remained at home to cook that meant that exactly half of our builders were totally unsure of what we were doing.

God blessed and we were able to build 7 (three walls/roof on) houses and another is very close to being at that point.  Four of the seven received cement today.  This team is building in Aldea Tunino and the climbs were significant.

Everyone is well.  Tomorrow we will host a block party for the children just over the mountain (Paul & Cristy’s church) and that will be a good time.  The morning will see us focus on building/finishing houses.

Pray for us.  The internet/phone is spotty.  However, we will try to update daily and no post simply means no internet.
