Last Thursday, we finished the house and then had a short dedication while Larry was still here. We are so grateful for the huge blessing of his willing hands to help build this house before he left to return to Arizona. We invited the neighbors to come and pray with the family and we shared about how important it is to rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep. One lady admitted she is jealous that her neighbor got a new home and now has a different attitude. Being jealous can bring out all kinds of evil and angry thoughts, but rejoicing for someone else can bring Gods Favor into your life. Saturday we had the whole colonia over for the monthly food and clothes giveaway. 150 families received food and over 200 kids where there, and I ran out of juice boxes. I always buy 200 boxes but this week, muchos ninos. The message that Carmelo and I shared was from Ephesians when Paul prayed for the people to understand the height, width, and depth of the Love of God found in Christ and to know that Love. I modified some crutches to fit a child with a broken foot. After the food outreach, we took some mattresses down to the house we just built and Blancas husband Simon was there and expressed how much He loved the new house. Since it is a tradition for the man to carry His wife across the threshold of their new house, we had a second dedication so Simon could fulfill the tradition. They had not slept in the house since we built it, because the family that supplied the funds to build it had not come yet, but we said it was ok to move in because the family can't make it over.
