Jubilation!

We got the church completed today! We got the last forms on and poured the entire church by about 1:00. The roofing crew also completed their work.
Our team after the church has been completed.
The church looks great and is ready for Sabbath. Some church members already set up a swimming pool for baptisms since the baptismal hasn't been waterproofed yet. We are looking forward to a great church dedication and worship tomorrow.

The team cleaning the brick after the concrete was poured. We had a challenge in that we didn't get the concrete off the brick soon enough (only one water hose) and the team had to scrub all afternoon. We will do this differently in the future.

Edward and me. Edward was the Maranatha foreman. He did a great job and was a joy to work with - I think he appreciated my attempts at spanish.
