As with every project God places the four cornerstones in place just every so perfectly by the expertise of Pastor Carlos and volunteers of the teams. The cornerstones have to be done level in order for the home to be a solid construction of 800 blocks rebars and 52 bags of cement. This is a very important start to the project. There was a small glitch in one corner of the house but Ben worked to chisel out the unnecessary base to get the corner set to perfection. On Friday evening Brad, co team leader, had devotionals for the team. He went back to discuss praying over the first block last year was a life changing experience for him and he has thought numerous times about praying over that first block last year. When we lock the door Brad shared, the home is compete. Brad shared how he was going to share about the Cornerstone of the home but unity also came to him by a sermon preached by Pastor Neal prior to coming to Honduras. So Brad shared how the cornerstone sets the foundation for the home as well as the future for Erlin and his family. This is a place where they will be safe and dry. A home where he can share Jesus' love with others. Since we have decided to follow Jesus as our Lord and Savior from the very beginning Jesus is our Cornerstone. Jesus is our foundation for our Christian walk, He is our protector and our Savior. Also because of Jesus' love for us we have become unified as a team and worked side by side this week serving our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We need to make sure Jesus is our Cornerstone so we can be unified as a family of believers. As Brad closed this evening with his devotional it was obvious the ladies on the team were already working on unity within the four walls of their dorm room and even on the bus each day as Tino drove them home. Sarah shared immediately how the ladies had created a very special bond during their time together and learned how to be true sisters in Christ. They have prayed together and shared together and became one in Christ this week. Brad's devotional was perfect way to come to the close of a week full of blessings especially for these nine ladies.
