Work progressing nicely in Haiti!

It seems that everything just takes longer in Haiti because materials are difficult to get and everything is done by hand.  The days get long but we are accomplishing so much in our short time here.  But we sure are glad that tomorrow is Sunday and we can take the day off from the work.

We set some water lines in a bathroom into concrete walls which involved sawing and jack hammering. Now we are filling the walls and putting a smooth coat on. We will have that done tonight, Saturday.







Then we need to install the tub and the tile floor and the tile inside tub and shower also.


We also took down the corner out by the road.  The block wall got hit by a vehicle and laid the blocks up. Now we have to pour a corner post with concrete.




Of course all the concrete needs to be mixed by hand. So everything take longer and is harder.

Please pray for a restful Sunday and a productive week next week.  Pray that the time our time here is glorifying to God and that we can be of service in whatever way we are needed.

God calls, we listen

Just a short note for tonight.  Rob and Paul Lundquist are leaving for Haiti on Tuesday, Dec 6 for 11 days to help with some construction and plumbing projects at the mission house, build desks for Maxo's school and spend time at at least one orphanage that we have grown to love.  We will be posting pictures and prayer requests over the next couple weeks.

Please be in prayer for Rob and Paul as they travel to Port au Prince, Haiti.  For physical, emotional and spiritual safety.  For solidified partnerships and for productive work.  Pray for conversations with people while they travel, while they are in Haiti and as they sit around the dinner table at night and talk about how they saw God work that day.

Thank you to everyone for joining us in prayer!
