Things are moving along fairly well with the housing project. We have 20 foundations poured with walls on 15 of them roofs on 8 of those. We hope to have families moved in before I leave on Thursday. It has seemed at times to be very slow going but the last couple of weeks the guys have really bought into what we are trying to do and things have gone a lot smoother and quicker. We are now able to set the forms and pour the concrete walls on one house each day. It has been challenging at times with the guys working for us, but it has also been encouraging to see the progress we have made in relationship. While we were sitting the other day waiting for supplies to show up we started talking about church and God. I had opportunity to share my thoughts and testimony and one of the guys asked how he could know the Lord. It was encouraging to be available when someone had questions and be able to share with him what I have found in the Lord. I continue to pray for him in his journey towards Jesus. This is the reason we are in this community and why we are building these houses. So the Kingdom might spread. I believe as we begin to move families in and as we deepen relationships we will continue to see His Kingdom come.


Thanks for your support,


Brian
