Making Progress

Here is the lot that we have chosen to use to build our house on. The small building on the left will be taken down as it is an old grain storage building. The house in the middle is one of our neighbours, Boboy. The house on the far right belongs to a family with 2 young girls. It seems that their parents are often off in the fields and the older sister takes care of the younger one. It also seems that this family is shunned in the village. The are very poor compared to the rest of the people in the village.





Please pray for these young girls and for us as we build relationships with them and other people in the village.









This was our lot at the end of the week. The post holes are dug and so is the septic.




Christina's house was the big project on this trip. At the beginning of the first week, Christina, her dad and Erik arrived to see this much work done.
This is what was accompished at the end of two weeks. It is amazing how much work was able to be done. Remember all the gravel, sand, rebar and cement had to be hauled in by truck!!!
They were also able to dig the post holes and septic for the Petersons house.
