Kerri shares a little about the end of the day yesterday and Mark G writes about how he has seen God move this week...
Last night after a hard day of work we headed to church and were able to fellowship with the community again. We had a couple people from our team help lead worship. It was awesome to worship together and know that no matter what language we are singing in God understands and is glorified. Something really special from tonight’s service was that Logan played and sang with Norvin, the worship leader here. They sang “Oh Praise the Name” or “Alabare El Señor” together in both languages switching off verses and choruses and at the end singing in unison both languages. It was great.
At the end of service the church thanked us for being there and gave us a gift of coffee 🙌🏽 and then prayed over us and over the things that we are helping to build to be used for Gods Kingdom here on earth. Denis reminded us that this was not goodbye because we do have one more day of work left! Hahaha! ~Kerri

Praise God!!!
What an amazing journey this has been. Words cannot accurately describe the tremendous work that God has accomplished this week. He hand picked people from 2 different countries, of all ages, with varying backgrounds, skills and abilities to complete the task of building a couple buildings and, more importantly, some relationships; all for the advancement of his kingdom. I am honored to have had the opportunity to work along side each and every one of the team. The accomplishments of this week are evidence that God will equip the called!
As we wrapped up our work today, I sat back and was in complete awe of the changes that had occurred over the past week. I saw some great progress on the children’s center as we have the walls built up 3 courses and we poured the concrete slab. I also saw the bathrooms with the walls built up and the plumbing trenches started. The septic system had the walls completed and the sidewalk was near completion. This group did some amazing work! The bigger changes were changes that I saw in the group. Throughout this week, all of us bonded and either built upon relationships we already had or created new relationships.

I can’t believe that I almost didn’t say yes to God’s calling for me to be part of this team.
