Construction team

From this........

........To This in 1 week!!
Hot off the drawing board!! Scott and a 6 person team from Canada, 3 local helpers, and a little more than $2000 built this home in one week. The first photo is the tin heap they were living in. 5 people on one mattress in an area that is flooded lots of the time. Their mattress on the floor was soaked with water and mud frequently. Now, they are up off the ground, and are getting brand new beds, mattresses for each person, and their own sleeping areas. Elsie and her 4 children are so happy. We still need to build a septic tank and prepare an outdoor kitchen area, that will be done all in good time. Once again, because of the efforts of people like you, a family has seen the hand of God moving on their behalf. Isn't it exciting to be a Christian!!!!! Many thanks to Heather, Nikki, Sheena, Sue, Joseph, and Mark.
They worked so hard and all the while managed to laugh and have fun. God is so good. Oh, yeah. I wanted to add...The panels of white in the house are actually vinyl. We were sent a huge shipment of donated rolls of vinyl and have been trying to use it up on projects...with a small budget, Scott came up with this idea to use in place of wood. My mother always says: "USE IT UP, WEAR IT OUT, MAKE IT DO, OR DO WITHOUT". We did just that, Mom, and this has given us a new and inexpensive way to get people out of hovels and into a cute little home with plenty of light, air, and beauty.
