Finishing up

The Construction Team has finished. We have some very hard working young men who put every thing they had into their work. Several days of broken bits slowed the progress but the team got everything done but half the metal on the roof. The Spanish Seventh-day Adventist Church family is so very grateful. 

 Alan, Skip and Mitchell working hard to get it done.

Our kitchen crew has provided amazing food! We have enjoyed the

wonderful fruits of the country as well as nutritious variety. Becky, Pam and Ginger, Thank you so much for your long and (early) hours of dedicated service.

Almost there! Walls are done and the trusses are up!

The Prophecy of Hope Seminar was wonderful. Jon, Alijah, Matt and Sydney

Preached with passion and there are eight souls baptized because of the Power of the Holy Spirit working through you. Praise God!

Pam in the Market. So much of what we ate came from this market.

From garden to table...yummmmm!

Vacation Bible School was great. Skip and Seth among others

gave individual attention to young children and teens and helped them understand the prophecy of Daniel two. Wonderful friendships have been established.

March 23 -Sabbath

We has a wonderful Sabbath day. We worshiped with the Punta Gorda Spanish and English churches combined. They had the school children from the Adventist school visiting with their parents. (Great because we had the opportunity to invite them to our "Children's Bible Workshop" personally.  We sang some rousing children's songs and then the Church service began. We enjoyed so very much the special music by the Leong family and Alijah and Mike. Jon gave the sermon with was translated in Spanish. His sermon was all about getting ready for heaven and was wonderful.

We walked back to our hotel from the church for lunch and then took a bus ride to Blue Creek to swim through a cave. We enjoyed the rest of the day there at the river and in the cave. Worship was by the riverside where we shared ways in which the Lord had already blessed us. The evening was a pleasant one with a visit to town for dinner and then some planning sessions.

Block building on Friday

Everyone is working hard and well together and we are so very blessed with this wonderful group of people. We were so happy when Rob and Zach joined us as well as Angelia and Stanley Hyde. Thank you for your continued prayers.

March 21 - First Work Day

We started out early this morning. The Dental/Medical team loaded the bus with all the gear and headed to the Mayan village of San Antonio. There they were able to treat those in need of a filling, extraction or cleaning as well as any ear, nose and throat issues. There was a rough start as we did not have proper suction equipment. But, the Lord blessed and provided all our needs and after two hours of repair and ingenuity things were up and running.

The block laying team went great. Every one worked very hard and by the end of the day they were working  together and the walls are rising.
The Bench building team cut and routed and sanded..they will be building 15 pews for the new church.

Everyone was blessed by serving today....Praising God for health and hearts to serve!
