A great start to the week

We had a fantastic day at the job site. We started the day with dedication of the job site. The pastor and church members were there and had a bible, prayer book and prayers that our group wrote down. They put in a box and then buried as a time capsule and a cornerstone for the church. It was a very special ceremony and had some wonderful words and prayers to end the ceremony  

I wasn't expecting the pastor to ask me to place the box in the hole. I joked with him that he wanted me to get dirty!  We all got a chance to put some do the dirt in the hole. 

We made great progress on the job site. We got almost done with the fifth course, a little ahead of schedule. We only had one person (Renata) get sick. We had some fruit brought to us on the job site and we think that is what made her sick. 

It didn't rain and didn't get too hot. Praise The Lord. We had a lot of folks praying for great weather and it was granted!

We also have a new mascot. A puppy wandered on the site and stayed the rest of the day. He is a very cute dog but doesn't know how to get out the the way. He got stepped on a couple of times but was ok. 

The power went out briefly at the motel but came back on in time for dinner. No candlelight tonight!
