Well there is finally a break in everything for me to write.
Yesterday I walked to a store with 3 of the team, to get groceries and other supplies. IT was a long and tiring walk. I think it was over 2 miles, one way. And that store is like a Colombian Walmart, it has Everything.
The work has come a LONG way since I got here on the school. They poured the cement for the back patio yesterday, and last night we moved the stuff onto the 4th floor. Then today we moved on the 3rd floor stuff. That was a lot of hard work, and we all are tired and sore. The older kids were there to help, and the boys carried the heavier things.
The smocks are almost finished. We have quite a few that are ready for the wrist elastic, and then they are done. And the others are all mostly done.
Tonight we are expecting another team to arrive. They are from Grand Rapids, and are mostly adults I think. So, since 3 of us girls had been using bottom bunks, we moved to top ones, so they wouldn´t have to climb.
The container has been released, and is going to arrive Saturday I think. Jeanene had flown to the port city to talk to the captain, and everything was approved. But then the computer wasn´t accepting the paperwork, and they were then able to override it. So we have been praising and thanking the Lord for that.

Sounds like ur having fun! So glad the stuff came in! That would have been bad if they couldn't get it in. God's always looking out for His people though. =)
Cynthia, Cynthia, Cynthia... You're gonna have to start come running with me. LOL. You'll think walking 4 miles is easy after that. =P But still, I can see where it can be tiring after a while. =)
We miss you! Can't wait to see pictures and you!
Good to hear from ya...sounds like you're keeping busy!! And yeah, from what I hear, Sarah's a real slave driver when it comes to making people run. YIKES!! :) (lol, jk Sarah!!) See you soon!
It thrills me to see how excited you are to serve others. I continue to pray for God's mighty hand to be on your life as you continue to grow strong in Him.
I am thankful that we serve an Ephesians 3:20 God who is always ready to do more that we can ever ask for, or even think of. Prayer is a mighty thing; it changes our hearts and perspective. God will always be glorified in all things. We rejoice will you all that the container will be arriving soon.
It sounds like you will need to come home for a little vacation. I think that before you go the next time you'll have to start a weight lifting and cardio regiment. ha ha Maybe your older brother could help you out with that!
Blessings to you as you serve the Lord as a living sacrifice.
