TECATE DAY 4: ROOFING, VBS, AND FUN TIMES.

Day 4 is done, and so is much of the work on our houses. 2 of our five house building groups have their roofs on and almost complete. The other three are all well within reach of finishing. On friday we will have no problem getting the work finished up for the families with some extra time left over just to be with them.

Today our teams worked together in amazing ways as our students and leaders constructed walls, put up roofing trusses, worked on paint and trim. At the same time may of our students spent the day building relationships with kids playing duck duck goose, soccer, and just being with them doing whatever. It is always so amazing to watch our students love so selflessly when given the opportunity.

I spent a little time with each group today taking pictures, filming their progress, and helping out in whatever way I could. I saw God at work at every job site... he is using middle school students to proclaim his name in mexico this week. AWESOME!.

Once again I have taken over 700 photos, which you should most definitely check out.

I saw some of the pictures, and was totally impressed at how far the groups have gotten! And it's so great to see the students hanging out with the kids of Tecate! You guys are definitely name-bearers.
I can't wait to hear your stories when you return!
