Week 1 Summary in Pictures


The week 1 crew has made significant strides to laying the foundation. The floor is ready to be poured on Monday and Tuesday using a cement pumper truck. The availability of this truck is truly a gift which will be essential in successfully pouring all the concrete we will need in this project.

The second week reinforcements have safely arrived, and the four returning team members had one final ride in the truck which apparently is earning the nickname the A.C.3 (ask past mission members what this may stand for :-)  ).  The roads are a little scary - so please continue to pray for safety for all travelling!

Thanks again for your continued prayerful support... hopefully we may have a story or two and/or some pictures to pass along from the returning team members soon.
