The start of a home

 
After the prayer the team dispersed to their new found job duties.  Mike gave a quick lesson on laying blocks to the new comers.  They were quick learners and off they went to building up the walls of Jose and Maria's new home.  They paired up with each other and the young adults of the family pitched in to help build their home.  The children of  Jose and Maria helped the entire week as each block became a part of their home.  Their eagerness to assist was most helpful for the North American team.  It was amazing how quickly they connected as one in the Lord for a common goal: a home for Jose and Maria.  There was cousins, brothers and sisters who were helping either mixing mescal or cooking in the kitchen.  This was definitely a family affair.  God showed our North American friends the true sense of community and family this week.  They shared how blessed they were to work beside such godly Christian folk who show what true Christian fellowship and hospitality was all about.  Thank you Jose and Maria for exhibiting Christ in a mighty way.
