Thursday

Busy day! But, it was a great day!

We had breakfast and left the hotel by 7:30!

We went to a house of a guy from the church (Jorge) and we made a roof for his moms house. Jorge is the only believer around in his community. He was very appreciative and we believe his family was appreciative for the work we did at their house! They were affected from Hurricane Alex a couple of weeks ago and they have been without a roof.

The cool thing about this was, our team raised about $250 from a car wash and were able to pay for supplies needed for the roof. (Props to Kristen Beck for heading that up!)

We also had machetes, hoes and rakes to clear out a lot of grass and weeds. Our team did an amazing job getting things done!

We also went to Acquiles Serdan (a school in the community) where we held a VBS and played futbol with the kids.

Ed, Kirsten, Kristen, Zach Maginnis and I finished up the roof and then joined over at the VBS.

We had a great day and are going to have a fun morning going to the mountains and then spending the afternoon at Acquiles Serdan putting on another VBS.

This is a great team! I am so proud of our students!

Here are some pictures...
