Haiti Day 9

Within in minutes, Craig's School of Welding will have you hard at work!  Here Elijah practices stick welding.


Craig's School is open to all people - especially Rosie the Riveter types. . . .

The day began much as the other days have begun 430am, preparation, departure for the job site about 540am.  Work began at 6am.  Today we came within 4 sheets of completing the roof.  Work began on the front wall and the installation of doors.  (I don't know how Megan did this blog . . . I am so tired I can hardly see)

We now have an opening for an instructor and one Haitian Pastor do to certain restraints shall                      we say . . .barring any complication they should be back on the job tomorrow.

All in all it has been an incredibly productive day.  We continue to build relationships, share our work and our lives with one another, and give God the glory.  To end our day we unloaded 300 cinder block, uphill, in 105 degree weather!!!


After showers and a few naps, several us went to a revival service being held at the FMC just around the corner from us.  Our cleaning lady, Anita, took us to church with her.  We arrived about 4pm and the service ended at 7pm.  We have no idea what the preaching was about, but the worship music absolutely rocked.  What a delight to worship with God's people where ever they may be found!

Tomorrow's sponsor is Chief's Block and Company . . . night Team Haiti Fans!
