...share your food with the hungry and provide the poor wanderer with shelter--when you see the naked clothe him... Isaiah 58:7
Move a House in the Colonia?
Last week one of the families in the colonia asked us if would be possible for us to take their two year old house apart and move it a mile down the road and put it back together. Not to much to ask, since we are there to help in any way we can we told them that we would come on Monday and take it apart. Obed said they could probably take the roof off and whatever else they could over the weekend. Well as Scott and I pulled into the colonia we saw the entire house all dissasembled leaning against the house next door waiting to be re-assembled. Praise theLord the guys had a friend with a truck big enough to haul the 20 foot walls still nailed together in one piece. We started putting the walls back together and things went back together pretty well. Lucy and Beth made us some fantastic food for lunch as we just finished putting the loft back together. After that great meal we worked for about an hour and we were done, not with the house but physically. It's not the wisest thing to eat a huge meal when your working in 100 degree temps. Oh well , we had the whole house completed by noon the next day, and just need to pour the cement floor when Pastor Victor gets back from taking care of his son Eliel who is in the hospital in Monterey Mx.
