DAY 2

We made it yesterday "on time" TIA. We worshipped with them and fellowshipped and most of all we ate very well with them. Today's work was hard and fun. Africa dirt is "glorified concrete". It fights back when you hit it. We dug 11 holes with 1.5 meters dip 18 inches square. We have 30 more to dig. We will pour concrete and place steel in the footings on Wednesday and start walls the next day.
The sewing and crafts was so.ming knew for the ladies and children. They chose to make purses to sell.
We had 200 plus children to teach and play with. Their stories were amazing. They all wanted to help dig because they wanted to be part of building the church.
We are tired but in full spirit.
The soccer balls were a blast and the Hula Hoops.

Thanks for everyone's prayers getting us here. God's has heard their prayers and all you and us are a part of hands working with the church in Old Neladi.

Clayton, I got to play Duck-Duck-Goose!
