Painting Anyone?


 
On the afternoon of the fourth day and the fifth day the boys prepped the room for painting.  Joel, Gorden and Ezekiel scrapped the mescal off the walls and then washed the walls down with a sponge.  Mike and Ron prepared the paint for the walls.  The color chosen for the dorm walls was antique white or Ezekiel called it creama.  This was another task which took time and patience.  It took three coats of the paint to get the walls completely acceptable.  These three gentlemen were flexible and ready to do whatever God put before them.  There was never a complaint.  Gorden shared how he enjoyed staying busy for the Lord.  He is a Martha personality he shared one evening.  Thankful for his eagerness to work and continue with whatever the task as well did Joel and Ron.  They worked side by side never skipping a beat as the walls became a beautiful antique white finish.  It is becoming more and more like a place for friends to come and lay their heads down at night after a long hot day on the mission field.  Each step as we get closer gets more exciting.  We are grateful for these three gentlemen who were willing to come down and help out with these tasks.
 
First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world.
Romans 1:8
