I'm at the lodge to access Wifi which has not been that good but is excellent this morning. Like I said in the last blog post, there are so many photos I could share but it takes a long time to upload them!
Yesterday, the men worked very, very hard and up until 11 pm. The Boss, Fran had certian goals that he wanted the men to reach by the end of Thursday. Let me tell you families of these men, you are going to have some weary men come home on Sunday! I am amazed at how they keep going and working and seeing things come to completion. From where they started to where they are this Friday morning, is unbelievable!
Finish up Friday is just that, clean up and do the finishing touches. The kitchen was set up and the 2 bathrooms are in working order. It was nice for Mel and I to be able to use the bathroom without having to go through the sanctuary where the men are sleeping in the middle of the night!
The Pastor and his wife had to leave town so we said our goodbyes last night. Mel has done a fantastic job with meals and even getting into moving walls and hammering and ripping out walls. She is a huge asset to this team! I have the project of repainting their church sign. The wood is rotted and you can barely read the sign. So I worked most of the afternoon on that yesterday and will try to finish it up today. It is a little tough painting rotting woodand doing lettering free hand.
Hump Day was a very much needed day for these hard working men! Tomorrow we depart for the Las Vegas Airport to take the red eye flight home!
"And whatsoever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the Name og the LORD JESUS, giving thanks to God the Father through Him" Colossians 3:17.
It has been a privilege to serve the LORD by serving the Hualapai people with this team, in this capacity! I believe the LORD and Davisville were well represented and pray that what was done for eternity and the Gospel will bear much fruit! Praise be to God!
The Progression of the addition to attach the church with the Sunday School building.
The work inside doing the plumbing, electrical, the drywall, the moving and building of walls. Putting the lighting up, hooking up the kitchen and the bathrooms.
Mel cooking in the new kitchen with the sink hooked up. She was washing the dishes outside with very little water.
