Day 5 Work Done

So the benches (all 12) are put together. All the material is ready to be packed up tonight after we go to church. The Time team here doesn't remember any team getting the amount of work done in the amount of time it took us. Kudos to all the students. You should be VERY proud of their work and their heart.

I am attaching pics of the work done today.

Later today we are going to the market and a church service. I can't wait to experience worship (D.R. Style). Thanks and keep up the prayers for health and for weather. It is pouring out right now and we want it decent enough to put up the building tomorrow.

Much Love,

Mark

    Dawn says (I can"t get computer to work) - Great work everyone... Status Rocks!!! Molly I've been sitting by the computer since you left... waiting to hear what you want to say to your mother... and you ask if Marissa got her license??? I love you too, and yes she got it!

    Also, what's with the tongue hanging out on every picture? Do you think you're Michael Jordan? Grandpa will be so proud of the building you're doing!

    Our prayers are endless here and will continue until you get home! Love to all... Dawn

    hmm, musta fell asleep trying to log in last night.  You guys are awesome!  I love you Hanna and Brady even if you don't want to send a message home.
    Molly, be assured it's a genetic thing, and I think Brady outgrew it, but they can blame it on their grandpa. :P
    DR beach towels make for a nice momento (late to hear now I know)

    Great Job everyone! Very impressive and way to set the bar high! We now will expect you all to perform work around the house at this level when you return home.... Anxious to hear about how Church was and see the photos and/or video.
    Your missions trip was highlighted on the Channel 12 news at 6:00PM tonight talking about your building of the church and "survival" of TS Emily!
    Leaders, thanks again for taking time out of your schedules to give all of our kids this experience to Serve Him. Kamryn, love you lots and proud of you! God Bless! Jim PS Mom says love you to the big dipper!
