A couple of days ago, I made the decision that the road in the colonia just had to be fixed. It was impassable when it rained really hard, and it prevented us from building two houses last month. So I ordered 9 truck loads of road caliche' and a big road scrapper and wallah, a smoother road. So I have to thank those of you that choose to support our work in Mexico, because your donations DID build that. We spent almost two thousand dollars yesterday, and could spend ten times that much if we had the resources and fix the road even better, but we did what we could with what we had.
Carmelo and the boys continue working on his new bathroom, and I know that Ruth wants it done, because they have to walk to the Community Center to use the bathroom and shower there. This week the Net Menders have been in town and have had a sewing outreach in the colonia, painted some houses, and a couple of guys wired a few houses with electricity. They have also transported and re- assembled a huge playground for the kids in a different colonia that was donated by a park district in Minnesota.
Well Gator brought my donated truck over yesterday and I'm still blown away at this awesome gift from The Power Ministry. Alfred is healing after his surgery, but has a way to go to full recovery. We have four men coming from Weatherford , TX for the weekend and then 48 more people Monday from the Carpenters Crew to be Jesus with skin on to the people in Mexico. Faithful servants helping those in need, I love it!!!
