Today was our first official work day and we are excited with the amount of work that lies ahead of us! Given the building style of the homes, we are working with plenty of rebar to prepare for concrete. The columns for the second floor are up and we are working on getting the floor prepped on the 2nd floor so we can pour the concrete. Between bending rebar and tying rebar together with wire we are anticipating a rebar filled week!
While some of the group worked on the church the others in the group were able to spend time with the children and share the message of the gospel with them. In the afternoon Miriam shared her testimony with the teenagers and Lah taught self-defense as a way of teaching the teens about the Lord! It truly is awesome to see people use their gifts unto the Lord.
Last night we had the opportunity to celebrate Pastor Cesar's birthday. The Ecuadorians sure know how to throw a party!!! At the party we ate our fourth meal of the day in addition to eating cake and candy! We are definitely eating well! You won't have to worry about your family member coming home skinny!!!
This morning we are going to the church service where Pastor Greg will be preaching and Pastor Nathanael and others on the team will be leading worship. We are blessed to be able to provide a full worship team to lead worship for the Sunday morning service!
Thank you for praying for us! We are evidently blessed by your prayers! At this point no one has become sick although we are assuming that that will probably not last!
Overall we are blessed by Gods work and the way in which God has provided direct opportunities to speak the truth of Christ.
