Day 3





Un momento...tis the saying here in DR...Duane wanted us all up and ready to eat breakfast at 7:30, and we all were...even Onita! and then...no breakfast. We waited and waited and about an hour later our breakfast finally arrived. It was tasty and worth the wait! Then we quickly loaded up and drove the 40 minutes to our site in the hills. This is my first experience doing something like this. How very humbling to walk along side them as we build an actual building to worship in. Not a lean to with torn tarps and missing tin that has blown off the roof.


We arrived and all the supplies were ready and waiting for us as well as a crowd. Looked like kidos dressed in their Sunday best. little girls in pretty white dresses...while we are surrounded by red dirt, dust & mud. (I don't even wear white in IA!)
This is where they are currently worshiping, very close to the new church 
 
How the site looked when we arrived 
everyone lending a hand carrying the block to the inside of the church 
 
Jesse & Brett's very willing helpers 
By the afternoon our church started looking like a church!!
