Roof Completion and Dedication




The completion of the project was coming to an end.  The last of the tin was going up.  The ladies of the church along with some of the North Americans were washing the floor of the sanctuary.  The team members were placing all the furniture back inside the church. There was a couple of ladies washing down the door of the church after all items were placed inside.  They were taking such pride in their church home.  I was wondering where Egla was located during all this.  I look down at the futbol field and she was sharing a bible story with a group of the children.  They were nesteled under the shade of several trees.  Everything was coming to a close and the entire week there was not a drop of rain during this rainy season.  Pastor G, Pastor Carlos, Pastor Amado and Orfilio were putting on the final touches of the front porch roof of the church with the generator running vigorously.  At that point it was time for the dedication, so the pastors and Orfilio put their final touches to a halt and Robert began the commencement of the dedication of the roof.  As he started to speak there came a rain shower.  God is good all the time.  For the first time the roof was not leaking and the inside of the church was dry.  Robert was able to finish the dedication and the pastors and Orfilio were able to put the final touches on the front porch.  Our God is an amazing and awesome God.  He reigns from Heaven above.  Our God is an awesome God.  To HIM be the glory for this entire week of service to HIM and His Kingdom.

"Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given us."

Romans 12:4-6
