Friday

I wanted to wait until this evening back at the hotel before I posted for tonight because I wanted you all to be able to see the last few pictures we could get. So much progress was made this week it is amazing. We came thinking that we would have several small projects that we were hoping to get done and we ended up with building an addition on the house! I am thrilled to be able to share with you that the walls are up, two windows installed and a roof completed! There is still quite a bit of work for Mark and Cirino (among others) that needs to be done to finish it off. I wish that every one of you could have seen several of the kids thank us with tears for helping to build a room for their new "brothers and sisters". They are so loving and welcoming to new kids because they want them to have what the now have, a family they can call their own.

John and Ted working on welding the frame for the roof.

The guys working until after dark to finish up the roof.

Leigh and Grant - Ok, I don't actually know what is happening in this photo but it was so great I just had to put it in!

Soccer!

The group!

Thank you for your prayers for us this week! We only have one more prayer request. We all fly home tomorrow and it would be great if we all are able to get where we need to go by time time that our flights say we should!

Thank you so much - what a blessing, what love, what energy - you have challenged us to keep on keeping on! You were/are truly instruments in the Lord's hands!

Love you all!
