Nasty is the best way to describe the weather down here. Right now it's 38 degrees, and for those of you up north, it's above zero and to us and our friends in Mexico, it might as well be below zero. Cold is cold and with the constant drizzle, it's raw. We had to go over yesterday because Paula and Lynnea have been helping Naomi make a dress for her little five year old girls birthday party on Saturday. They got it all done as Alan and I cleaned up all the drywall debris from the Center. Alan washed the floor because it was considerably warmer in the Center because the Power Ministry insulated the roof and the walls, wow what a difference. The girls were in our house sewing, with two propane heaters going full blast and you could still see your breath. All the kids were so bundled up, that all you could see was their eyes.
I'm so glad we got two of the three foundations poured Wed, because that cement truck ain't getting down the road in the colonia for a while. The Municipality was going to have a Caterpillar scrapper come through the colonia on Thursday and fix the road, but with the rain it didn't happen. The wood for all three houses will have to wait until next week as well.
We attended a mini missions conferance last night, held by the Net Menders Ministry from MN. They are a support team for many different Missionaries and hearing the testimonies from them was a inspiring. Manos Huntos is hands together and they are working with many missionaries and doing various building projects in Mx. We supply some of their food outreaches with beans and rice. Speaking of beans, We have partnered with another missionary and Rick Caywood Minisrties to get some of our beans to the poor in Cuba. Rick set the whole thing up and He donated the rice and we donated the beans, Awesome!!! So we have sent beans to Cuba, Somalia, Uganda Africa, Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Haiti, The U.S. and God only knows where else the beans have traveled to. We can't do it without you, so Thank you again for all the prayers and support that keep it going, all for the Glory of God.
