Hey Guys! It has been
a crazy first week. We Crossed over Monday morning at 5:00 A.M. to begin work
on our first intern training house. The
1st house was for a single mother, Patricia, and her two daughters
Crystal and Marlyne. There are 8 interns and three staff members accompanied
us. The process is very slow because we
are receiving very detailed instruction and explanation as we build. When we return to the church we go back over
the day’s events in detail. We finished
our training build on Wednesday morning and headed to house 4000 after
lunch. The 4000 build is an all staff
build which is an amazing experience in itself.
House 4000 was a double that was completed at 11:00 A.M. on the second
day. We finished the sheetrock in about
two hours. The neighborhood families and
pastors had a steady stream of food coming in; my personal favorite was the
tacos del lingua vaca (Cow Tongue).
Next week we will be training on a double Monday through Thursday. My first solo build is scheduled for the
week of June 4th, terrifying!!!! Prayers are needed.
I apologize that there are not many good pictures, they have
been keeping us super busy.
Love you guys.
Dedication of the intern training build. |
