It has been a couple of eventful days here in Santiago! Since Monday we have spent a lot of time with the girls and worked very hard. The library is almost complete with new siding and roof. We will begin painting the inside this afternoon or tomorrow. The team is really working together to get the job done! It’s amazing how people from all over the world can come together and become one. Only with God’s help have we been able to accomplish so much.
On Monday and Wednesday nights we had the wonderful opportunity to eat with the girls in their casas and have a bible study with them. We love being able to spend one on one time and learn more about them. Our prayer is that the lessons they learned will really speak to their hearts. We desire for every one of them to be in a relationship with Jesus and understand the great plan He has for their lives. Special thanks to our translators who have graciously made it possible for us to communicate these things to them.
We look forward to tonight, as we will be traveling downtown to go out to dinner. It will be the first time outside of the Hogar as a team and a much needed break for our cooks, who are doing a great job by the way!
We truly covet all of your prayers; it is an encouragement to know that you are thinking of us. A few requests include:
1. Safety on the job site (if you could see Lee welding you would know why!)
2. The team members’ health
3. The girls’ wisdom to make good choices in their lives and their safety
4. That the girls do well with their exams as they are finishing school soon
