Tiling, Teaching and God moves without Words

After the activity of the weekend it was back to work for the construction crew on Monday morning. With most of the tiling on the first half of the room completed by Rene and Meto, The edging was all that had to be finished, this took a while as each tile had to be cut to the right size and placed and hammer down. It was a great relief to place the final tile. Although only half the room is finished at this point, it is with a good sense of being able to complete the other side that the team continue onwards.

Having learned some lessons from the first half the second half will be tackled in a slightly different way. So the order of the day was to place filler directly onto the floor in the cracks rather than nailing new boards on top. This went well and tomorrow (Tuesday) glue and tile will be set.

The baby count is now at 9 with that baby being born via c section on Sunday morning. Today Linda went with Sonia to teaching knitting in Lucina, and with Dave Fields on a trip to La Ceiba, Pastor Richard became the transportation for a number of people.

Later in the afternoon Phil and Beverly went over to Lisa's house to visit the boys and present the gospel via the wordless book. One of the 8 boys was at the point had not accepted Christ. (in the early hours of Tuesday we heard that after hearing from Phil and Beverly and a later conversation with Lisa, this boy came to accept Christ).

Our evening guests for dinner were Ian and Liz McKenzie and their son Samuel. They run the children's home and after a great meal together, Stories of many of the children who live and have lived at the center were shared. These stories will have a long lasting effect on those who heard them this night and all those with whom they are shared in future. Certainly the team will have a great deal to share again this year.
